Tyre pressure sensor replacement?

Anyone know if these can be found locally. One of mine no longer sends a signal. Cheers.

Need more info. I believe recent models give more data than older ones, or perhaps they just dipsplay more. My '08, for example, just has one generic warning, then you have to figure out which one is low.

13 model, has a dash instead of a reading in one of the 4 wheels so I know which exact one. Just want to see if these are available locally before buying from the US.

Just for troubleshooting, have you tried rotating the wheels or putting the spare on, to verify that it is the sensor in the wheel, and not the reveiver? Might just be a loose connector?

In order to know which tyre it is, there would need to be local receivers at each wheel.

Good idea, will swap wheels to see.

Just swapped front wheels. While the TPM system still said the same from left is the problem, if I lower the pressure of the new front left wheel it says the front right is being lowered making me think the sensors are positionally linked and it is the sensor that is the problem.

Did you take it out for a drive? The sensors only start transmitting when the wheel is turning fast enough & it can take a few minutes to update, apparently.
