Default Tire, pressure, sensors, pairing, learning

I have a 2003 Zo6. I have aftermarket C7 Chrome wheels on. All my sensors used to work and now I have two of them on the rear that will not pair up. I’ve done everything with the magnets. I’ve taken it to tire shops. I’ve taken it to a Chevy dealer. I’ve purchased new sensors and I can’t get them to pair up. Any suggestions please.

C7 style aftermarket wheels. My tire pressure system sensors used to work and now I have two on the rear that I cannot get them to pair up. Any suggestions please I bought new sensors. I’ve taken it to several tire stores. I’ve taken it to the Chevrolet dealer so far no luck I bought the sensors off of eBay And their identical. To the ones in the front that work.

Amazon and Ebay is a crapshoot. Post what manufacturer and p/n you purchased.

I'm hoping you are trying to pair them up before you install them so you don't have to remove the tires from the wheels when you figure out the sensors are not working?
This thread is the definitive TPMS information for the C5.

C5Z's didn't come with TPMS so was your car enabled, before adding the C7-style wheels and sensors.
