TPMS Error - Bronco won't read RF tire

[FortMacGuy]

Winter tires are on, new AUTEL TPMS sensors took a while for the Bronco to recognize them, but the Right Front wheel is not reading.
Anyone have any experience with this issue? I have a TPMS too, and it reads all sensors perfectly.
I should add before someone says "just drive it", the tires have been on the vehicle for 3 weeks and it's being daily. My handheld TPMS scanner immediately picks up the sensor when I initiate a scan so I'm lost...

The Bronco can be "weird" with TPMS sensors sometimes. After a tire rotation I was getting a left front is low message. Checked the pressure repeatedly and it was fine. I finally decided to check them all and discovered that the spare was a bit low. It was on the left front before I rotated, and the Bronc was still reading it as such, apparently. It took a day or so before it figured them out.

The 1st time I popped one of the factory GYs, I got the warning that the tire was low - even though I'd moved it to the spare hanger. The warning persisted until I got the new tire (including air) back on the spare tire carrier and drove a couple of miles.

The 2nd time I popped a GY, it picked up that the spare TPMS was on the rig even though the spare was at 6PSI by the time I got it off the wheel and up to the spare carrier.

Seems that figuring out which tire is where is a little wonky if the tire you moved to the spare rack has no (or little) air in it.

Also, have 4 new Toyos and the newest GY on the spare, so hopefully won't be popping tires anymore!
