any halfway decent tire shop can do it for you, or you can buy the little tool online I think they can be had for $20 or less

What year? You said the tire was fine, what did you do to it to check? The light comes on if the air pressure decreases more than 10 psi from whatever it was set to, probably the same as your door sticker.

There are two procedures for resetting the TPMS sensors but this is positional and not related to low air pressure. The light goes out due to low air when the sensor detects the right amount of air or is replaced because it was faulty.

On another note, your truck can have a DIC switch easily added. You just need the switch and the panel modified or changed so you can access it and those handy features.
