Tire pressure only shows on front right and rear left. and they shows good numbers. Now I did switch the wheels around, front to rear at each side. Still good reading at front right and rear left. My conclusion is that the receiver system for the tire pressure is out on the other two positions somewhere between the wheel houses and the computer.
Does anybody have an idea on how to fix this?
Greetings from TN.

I had same problem, they checked tires and said sensor was out in one wheel, which did not correct problem. It was the module near the tire that needed replacement and they can identify on their equipment for you. However it is quite expensive and found not covered under my maintenance contract with Zurich.

I'm not 100% sure on a 2011 if it has the capability to automatically detect the wheel position or not. I have a different model 2014 and you have to program the tire position after rotating. Versus some other newer models that will do that automatically. Maybe somebody can confirm?
Basically what I am saying is that the truck may not know you rotatated the tires, just knows that sensor A was in this position and doesn't know you switched it.

An 11 automatically detects the sensor however 11 sensors are a different frequency than mid 2013 and up sensors.

I believe early sensors are 315mhz and late sensors are 434mhz
