TPMS problem but no flat

What's up everyone. I'm having a bit of an unusual TPMS issue.

So lately I've been getting a warning to "check tire pressure" along with the light icon. But all of my tires are at pressure, no nails leaks nothing.

I go into the service settings to see which tire is effected and I don't see the display anymore at all that shows which tire has how much psi of air. Can't get it to come back up at all.

I checked all my sensors with a tpms tool and they all have a signal.

I unplugged the battery, took out the fuse to disable the system then plugged it back. I can't seem to get this to work again.

Has anyone else had this issue before or know of a remedy?

TIA

You won't go anywhere without scanning the system.
Right now this dongle seems to be the best deal https://www.walmart.com/ip/Autel-HT2...Tool/964022238

All it says is check tire pressure. But doesn't show me any values.

could be a bad TPM receiver it self , i had an issue where it would not work for 2 days and then work for a day,,, because i installed wrong sensors and the MIDAS in roseville,ca didnt do the right thing to program/relearn and somehow messed up my receiver.
long story short , i got a new receiver , replaced it and now it works great for about a week.
paid 28$ and took about 40 min to replace.

That's what I'm thinking it is. I'm going to check eBay for one and order it. Need to find out how to get to it now lol
