I would say a sensor wire probably got touched during the install and is now rubbing on something, maybe broken off already.

But this shouldn't make the car "shut down" though ...

May need to to double check a sensor. Go to discount tire and borrow their programming tool for 6 bucks.

That's a tire pressure tool not what he needs...

Abs sensors are not programable...

Darn it I thought the dash displayed the same error icon in either instance. My bad.

And just a hint. Most dealers will program tpms for free as a customer satisfaction thing
