Default one bad tire sensor?

I have one tire sensor that started to go bad. Tried to re-program and worked well with the three except the bad one would not re-program. Guess it is just bad. Where can one get a new tire sensor without paying GM their big price? Thanks for your help and happy New Year!!!! :

No longer under warranty? If not, contact Ken Fichtner @ Fichtner Chevrolet (See Ken's Newsletter Forum). He often gives good prices for GM parts. Whether or not it'll be worth it after shipping will depend on the price.

:confused: I thought each sensor had it's own battery and when the battery failed the sensor had to be replaced? I also thought the bat's were always on.. but then I really don't know. If a sensor is used, does it have the same life as new? thanks (owner of 4 installed sensors... )
