Have documentation to support this? Discount tire could not get my new PI/Denso sensors to transmit, even after a couple days driving on them. Dealer ended up pressure cycling them and they worked perfectly.
Any trouble recognizing Tire Pressure Monitors (TPMS) (1 Viewer)

I had a call with Pacific, I detail it on here somewhere. Discount has problems getting their reader to ID some sensors, including mine until they input as an LX570.
Edit I went and re-read what wrote regarding the call. Pacific was super helpful. I looked back at my other post. Pacific told me that inflation only should work. He said if it didn't to drop psi and raise again, but it shouldn't be necessary.
Keep in mind his English was not great, and my Japanese is worse.
I usually use Techstream and never have to cycle. Only problems have been with Discount. I only went there recently as I misplaced my paper with the sensor #s for my winters (d'oh!).

I tried dropping to 15 psi and airing up again, but my sensors still aren't communicating with the ecu. As noted above, I probably need different model of sensor, but it was worth a try (cost=$0). Five new TPMS is at least another $200 plus another tire shop trip. Annoying that Denso isn't fixing this in their catalog, if it is a known issue.
Where did you buy them? Can they still be returned? Some places may take them back if they were the wrong model. Especially if that company has the wrong cross-reference. It is at least worth checking into...

I'll look into it. I bought them from Rock Auto. Unfortunately, the tire shop threw away the boxes. But definitely worth a try.

I've ordered 10 of these, I swear one was counterfeit, as I couldn't get it to activate/register.
The ones I could register
The one that wouldn't

If you’re on the hook for new ones anyway, 5 autel and a computer to program are about $200. If you can break beads you can then do it all on your time/schedule no tire shop required. Three years in on mine. . . Use computer to clone your existing Tpms ids. Easy.
Did you break the spare sensor?
Well, s***. Sounds like a fun time with your sensors.
Yeah, s*** happens. Especially with cars. Every time I repair or upgrade something, there is usually something else that has to get taken care of and it ends up being a bigger PITA than I thought, but somehow I still enjoy it.

So I got the other four old ones out undamaged.
Somebody posted a cool trick with a floor jack and a ratchet strap. I got all four off that way.
I had a couple get loose and had to use the tire irons, but that was good practice (you never know when that skill might come in handy for a patch in the BFE).
The sensors were all the PMV-015 version.
Still no reply from Denso (but in all fairness it has been the holidays).

My 11 and 16 had screw in with nut/washer, as I believe all 200 series do from the factory.

I've only seen '13 and '16, but know from recent parts searches that the '16-20 share the same sensor part number, and they are all the type with the threaded post, washer and nut.
By the way, I'm in a back and forth with DENSO and they haven't backed down from their incorrect fitment. So far, they refuse to admit that the ones for the '16+ are wrong in their system.

Generally (At least on the Tacomas I have dealt with) the snap in type sensor is used for Steel Wheels and the nut/washer type is used for Aluminum Wheels.
