I have two 15 year old vehicles.
The wheels on both contain the TPMS technology of that generation, where small battery-powered sensors beacon the tire pressure to a receiver in the vehicle.
The sensor batteries are now dead from age. You can't change the battery; the sensor is sealed, and has to be changed out in its entirety.
At the local tire shoppe, they can replace the sensors with new ones, at a cost of $100 per wheel, all in.
Anyone know of a place where this isn't quite so costly?
