Default Tire pressure indicator went on after I had a tire changed

Ok so here we go. My 05 ls430 has yokohoma sport tires on it and they are wearing well. About half way now. I been noticing some humming noise in the left front wheel for a few weeks. I started to investigate the tire and noticed it was ripped right in the middle of the thread. I figured that was the noise. So I brought the car in to have the full size spare put on. The tire is same size but it is a Dunlop. Not a huge deal. I just had the front tire replaced and rotated the tires so the new Dunlop is in the baxk. The noise is still there. Ok here comes my problem. 1 day after the tires were rotated my low air pressure light goes on. I chexk the pressure and all are at 33 psi which is what the car calls for. Is there a reset option ? Does anyone know ? Or do u think the repair shop broke the sensor ??? I also notice that he gauged my rim up pretty bad. Ugh. Help

From the manual:

After replacing the tires or wheels, adjust all
4 tires to specified tire inflation pressure and initialize the
tire pressure warning system. To initialize the system,
turn the ignition switch to “ON” and push the tire pressure
warning system reset switch for longer than 3 seconds
with the vehicle stopped.

The reset switch is under the dashboard.
