Default FS Low Tire Pressure Warning System Sensors LTPWS - Last One








These are from various sets of wheels I had on my 1996 C4. They all worked when I took them off. I took them off because I race & they are not really useful for racing applications as you run pressures & tires very different from stock. Also taking tires on/off every few weeks they just get in the way. Multi sets of wheels resulted in my having these left over.

I think the black ones are originals & the white ones were made by a different vendor after GM ran out of the original bunch but it could also be that they are for different late C4 model years.

They MAY work for more than one of the later model years of C4 and ZR1's and probably not the early years. Match the sensor color and label color to your dead one, or go by the part # on the dead one (or all the above).

There are NO BATTERIES in these, movement of the wheel provides the electric power necessary to power the transmitter, it's called "Piezo-Electric" energy.

They are specific and different for each corner of the car. They are very reliable until your tire changer crushes it, or you get a blow out & drive on the rim a ways.

These are, for the most part, no longer available from dealers or they might have an odd corner left in stock if you get lucky. Last price I got from my local dealer for one was over $350.

I am selling these for $175. each shipped CONUS. I will ship elsewhere but that shipping will not be included. I will list the GM part numbers and both the GM and Epic numbers for the white ones. Epic Technologies Inc. is the mfg. on the white ones.

Sold as is no returns, as there may be other problems with your LTPWS system besides the sensor. Could be receiver, could be RF interference, could be damaged on installation, could be something else.

PLEASE don't ask if this one will work on that car etc. I do not have time to do all that research & you need to do your own homework on it.

Read the FS guidelines if you are not familiar with how this works. No PM's except to close the deal & exchange shipping info. Start your own thread if you are selling one of these, etc.

Each includes strap & counter weight as you see in the pictures.

I reserve the right to sell locally or elsewhere or change the price at any time. I recently heard that a commercial source is getting $50. for just the strap & counterweight. Prices on scarce Corvette parts are a classic example of supply/demand economics.

ALL SOLD Thanks!

RR GM p/n 10161857 Epic p/n 10005001 white/orange label .........sold


Thanks for checking out my FS. I will keep the FS post up to date as each is sold off.

Add $10.00 for Paypal, I prefer PMO (Postal Money Order, NOT the same as your local bank/credit union money order) & I ship fast. If you don't do Paypal or PMO there will be a shipping hold until funds are clear usually 7-10 days.

I've obviously got a bad one, but OBD2 scan doesn't show code and short of dismounting the tires can't figure out which one is bad. The warning light comes on after driving about 5 minutes, air pressure correct.
If I knew which one was bad, I'd by it from you. Any ideas?

There IS a way to tell, because they are specific for each corner, but, I sold my FSM so I have no way to look it up. Sorry. Maybe someone with a 1996 FSM can help out.

Default ltpws sensors

Do you still have a left front sensor left as the tire shop that destroyed mine is desperately looking for a replacement? I have a 96 coupe that is immaculate in all respects except the ltpws in now defunct.
Thanks, ssandy
