2010 Chevy Impala LS 3.5L Flex fuel

I got my tire pressure monitoring sensors replaced about a year ago because one died and I just decided to replace them all (they were the factory sensors, I figured the others weren't far behind). Randomly now, my right front or left rear tire pressure sensor will lose connection which prompts the light and warning on the dash. After turning the car off for a short bit (15+ mins) and then back on, the tire monitoring system will work just fine again. I'm thinking maybe its the board that they connect or report to, but I'm not sure exactly what that is, or how to check it. Any help to get me started in the right direction would be appreciated.

I will admit, I didn't do my own due diligence and just went to Discount Tire. And no, I didn't get the old ones back. Because I didn't think I had any need for them.

I should add that sometimes it's one of the sensors, sometimes it's both, and sometimes they comeback during the drive and sometimes they don't. But powering down the car for a bit will always bring them back on start up. But I will see about getting the sensors checked. Thanks for the help!
