TPMS light on 2010 accent

I just put on four new tires and the TPMS light went on in four days. It’s the TPMS light not the low-pressure indicator. This is a 2010 accent. I deflated each tire and isolated one tire did not trip the low-pressure light. Does this indicate which tire could be the problem? (the sensor not working) is this only a dealer fix, did the tire installer brake it, are they that sensitive?

Yeah, it sounds like the sensor is bad. It possibly could have been damaged by the installer. It should still be covered by the 5 year / 60k mile warranty. Go back to the dealer.
