LUKE: TPMS help please

I bought a set of SCHRADER TPMS for my 2009 C300 4matic sport through the tire rack website. I called and someone on the tech line said the ones that come up for that car will work when installed. Well I paid for my mount, balance and install and they are not working. Is there a trick to this or did I pay $256 for these not to work on the car like they said? I reset the onboard tire pressure to current settings but the light stays on and after driving 10 miles or so a message comes up that the tire pressure monitors are inoperable. Any idea whats going on? Thanks for your help.

Send those back and get some 433 mhz tpms sensors on ebay for the newer ford trucks for 100 bucks. Get the tpms remounted at sams club for 20 bucks.
