Doesn't anyone read the Z06 Faq in the forum? Plenty of info in there. I bought used TPMS monitors, went the local dealer, he fumbled with it awhile but in the end we got them working fine. And zero cost from the dealer.

I didn't see anything in the Z06 FAQs. If it upset you so much. why did you bother to comment?

Not upset, just know when I searching for my Z, I read every bit of that faq more than once. But then I like to be informed before I make a purchase and also know about easy mods....And you obviously skimmed through it cause as posted above, its in there. I will say it didn't go exactly as written in the faq on my '04, but between the Tech and I, we figured it out.

Older post, but here is what I did.
Before Christmas my keyfob receiver stopped responding in the car. It was intermittent when fiddling with it and the plastic cover looked a little melted and the PC board a little off color. I ordered a used replacement for a 2001-2004 corvette from ebay for $65. It worked fine when I installed it and I was able to resync my existing keyfob's. However I started to get the tire pressure sensor warning which I had never received before on the stock Z06. I liked the idea of having TPMS so I lived with it for several months (just need to push reset button on start to clear the message) and then on my recently bought rims and tires I had Titan tire pressure sensors installed ($160 for a set UPC# - 9461564 from titantpms.com). System now works great and gives me tire pressure readings.
