Lots of recent posts about the early year car TPMS failing due to age. Do a search. Two options as I recall. Have the batterys replaced in them. Believe it was Corvette Don is one that does this. Purchase replacements and I believe that Tire Rack had the best prices but you need to call them. Replacement TPMS not easily found on their web site.

I think you can also find them at Discount Tire stores. Not sure of the price though.
