Check the connection to the reset button in the glovebox as they are known to come loose.

With regard to sensors, the TPMS uses the ABS wheel speed sensors to detect a drop in tyre pressure. If one of them was faulty you would get an ABS & ESP warning light on in the dash.

Exactly as Bob says.
I assume you have checked the tyre pressure?

To be fair Kris the actual tyre pressure is irrelevant and whatever it is it won't prevent the system from resetting. As it uses the wheel speed sensors it's a comparative measurement from a datum value when the system is reset.

I should have known that 🤦‍♀️ They don’t have the tyre pressure sensors in the wheels.
Op - ignore me.
