Default 04 Mini Flat Tire sensor

I had two new tires put on the mini two days ago and now the Flat Tire Monitor is on solid and yellow as soon as you start the car. I checked the tire pressure in all 4 wheels and adjusted them to be the same. I tried reinitalizing the system but that did not help. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Interesting, I went thru the reinititializing steps and the light is off now.
I'll keep my eye to see if it returns but all is good at the moment......

"new" tires have more tread and a different diameter so you have to reinitialize the system you might have to drive a bit to reset it
