Default Tire Pressure Module

I have a c5 - I had the individual pressure readings go out. So I reset each tire,, drove it around a bit and they were reading correctly within guage.. Next day - I am right back to where I started - no pressure readings on any tire - completely blank. I do not have any errors on the display (low tire, service engine, engine not running rough, etc.). What gives - anyone have an idea on what (or how) to isolate the root cause of this problem? Much thanks in advance!!

How old are the sensors? The batteries last 8-10 years, sometimes a bit longer.

appreciate the reply! Um, they are probably original - just strange that all four would fail at the same time - that is why I thought it may be something different..

It's either the tire pressure sensors, or the receiver module located behind a panel on the drivers side just behind the seat. This module also provides the door locking/unlocking function with the FOB.

Appreciate all the replies!! Much appreciated! As to " receiver module located behind a panel on the drivers side just behind the seat." - if this were failing wouldn't the fob lock/unlock function also fail? Not opposed to trying any solution but before I replace it would like some isolation of the problem source. Don't misunderstand - I REALLY appreciate any input anyone can prove - thankk

The receiver module only has two functions it's possible that the tire pressure function is failing without affecting the FOB. The only way to determine what is happening is by using a scan tool, you could of course replace the tire pressure sensors as they are all the same age and could all fail at the same time or replace the receiver module.
