Need help—-TPMS receiver 2010
It appears the TPMS receiver in my 2010 base is failing. Our local Chevy dealer says all TPMS monitors are working properly, but they continue to fault after driving the car for a short while. After the car has been off for a few minutes, they reset and work, only to fault again. The dealer says there are no receiver modules made anymore. When I asked him if there’s any way to solve the problem, he shrugged his shoulders and was silent. I would very much appreciate any advice, input, suggestions. Thanks

I had a recent experience ( similar problems ) with the TPMS frequency signal in my 11' GS being corrupted by an IPOD which was connected via the Bluetooth USB in the console.
Nothing like taking high speed curves and having the ABS braking activated out of the blue. Stopped using the IPOD and no more problems.

To add on to @TEXASCORAL 's theory, have you added any electronics to the car? New stereo receiver, LED light bulbs, or wireless devices?

In fact, I have installed LED bulbs in the headlights and driving lights last year. Also, an aftermarket stereo was installed as well 8 years ago right after I acquired the car. I use my IPhone connected wirelessly to the Bluetooth in the stereo. This problem started last year, and even as I write this I wonder if it might have started around the time I put the LEDs in.
