Ah, the plot thickens ... your car is a 2011 (probably build sometime in 2010), that means it uses a certain style of senor. Model year 2011 was a transition year and many owners and shops get it wrong!

If the sensors you bought with the wheels are not the correct ones, they'll never register!

Tell us:
1. production date of your car
2. sensor exact brand, model number (not serial nr) and production date stamped on the sensor body.
3. Do you have a picture?

There is a module under the rear bumper that picks up the sensor signal. This and the sensor in each wheel can be tested with the appropriate scan tool.
