have you done anything to cause the sensors not to work.....the sensors need to relearn the system

Try this first

If the horn does'nt honk at any one wheel,the sensor at that wheel is bad.The sensors are supposed to last about 5 years or so depending on useage.

As others said, do the relearn procedure first, but most likely, the tire pressure sensor is broken.
Same happened to me. Called Ken Fichtner with the year of my car and a few days later I received a new one.
