TPMS not Updating New Position of Tires after Rotation

About two weeks ago I had a side to side rotation of my tires done and TPMS has not updated with the new positions. I didn't discover this until about two days ago when I had a bent wheel replaced. I've performed the reset via the cluster menu and the positions have not updated. Is there a step that I am missing to get TPMS to reflect the new tire positions in the cluster menu? I've had front to back rotations done in the past and TPMS updated on its own previously.

Hmmmmm Are you saying that your display now shows the RF on the left side of the display? Not sure what you mean by positions, as the car will always have LF, RF, LR, and RR. The TPMS should automatically update.

Yes, on the display, the tire pressure shown for the RR is actually the LR.

I would have a tech look at it. They should automatically reset themselves after you have driven for a while.
