Car must be running and stationary to start the reset process. Mine only takes 5-10 seconds to initialize (I've got a slow leak, so I have alot of recent experience with this thing).
If you have to drive around for much longer, something must be wrong.

As of a recent software update (like >19 I think), the FTM on my car is VERY quick. If you re-initialize it, within a few seconds of driving it goes back to Active. I take it this may not help you but if you need an excuse for a software update, this is one!
