2020 Silverado TPMS sensor replacement question.

[nolte]

Last week I rotated my tires and I have the little hand held battery operated tool that lets you 're-learn' the position of your tires after you rotate them. All the honking and double honk at the end to confirm etc....
All that went fine, as usual... but this week the TPMS system 'lost' the left rear tire. 

It gave me a generic box on the display to service the Tire Pressure monitoring system.

When I viewed the tires, the other three showed up fine, but the left rear tire just had dashes there (like when you're using your spare.)

I used the tool to try to relearn them, and all three of the other tires will make it honk, but that last tire will not.
My assumption is that the sensor in that tire went out.

 

I'm out of warranty, and local Firestone wants $250 to replace one tire sensor.

 

My question is:
Can I just buy a sensor and have a tire shop replace it, and just use my tool to 'learn it'.... or are the sensors somehow programmed into the thing where a more complicated device is needed to 'add' a new sensor to the system.
I'm just looking at this basically:

Thanks for any input or help!

Dead battery in the sensor.

$250?  Its like a $60-70 at the dealer, probably $30-40 to install it.  

 

The one you looked up isn't right for your truck either.

I just recently got a set of 4 off ebay for $30 for my 2022 as I bought another set of rims for my summer tires. My local tire guy charged me $60 to install the sensors and mount the tires. Yes, your hand relearn tool will work on them.

Thanks you guys... I'll look up a proper part number and head to the tire shop.

Guys I'm having trouble finding an OEM part number or manufacturer from the places I normally look.
Anyone got a link or number? Thanks in advance.
I know there are tons of aftermarket parts that claim to work, would prefer one just like the other three if possible.
