Tire Pressure sensor
After the 20years sensors died. Bought new sensors.they are fine. Seems problem is in a computerin my Vette. Wonder if some one has had a similar problem that could give me an idea of what it is? Thanks.

Can you describe what is happening? Are there codes? Have they been initialized? Used receivers are still available if yours is defective...

Do your FOBs work. If so, they use the SAME receiver and path to the BCM. Did you RE-LEARN the TPS? Did they all re-learn??
Did you get the correct year/series sensors. 97-2000 use a specific frequency and 2001-2004 use a different frequency. They can NOT be interchanged.
If you still have your old sensors, there is a way that you can replace the battery with a new one. You have to remove the rubber potting on the back of the sensor on one side and solder in a new battery. Then you fill in the area with RTV.
