They both look right, I can get you the correct information when I'm back home on Friday. Someone may be able to help you before then. PM me later in the week if you need the info.

The ones I used were BR2477 from Digi-Key

The replacement was easy once the sensors are out of the tires.

Someone did a write up with pictures, do a search, it will be worth it.

I found a nice ceramic magnet from McMaster-Carr that was actually a ring. You drill out the center of the metal casinig and it fits perfectly over the valve stem from programming.

Or, you can program them before installation, just mark the location of each.

Good Luck

Why waste money when you can do it yourself. I already give too much of my money to the machine.

Yup, Ive got only one dead sensor as of now, ive got the dead battery out and just waiting for a fresh one to install.

The write up shows the green one which is br2477 and people say to get cr2477, it looks like the only difference is the size, the physical size itself between the two.

Just wish I could find the batteries locally so I didnt have to order south of the border.
