TPMS Sensor receiver location?
Hi all,
Got new wheels and tires with new TPMS sensors. Since then my front passenger sensor will suddenly disconnect and show -- for 15-20 minutes then reconnect. This happens almost every drive and will engage aggressive traction control when it does. Took it back to discount tire and they replaced that sensor. However it's still happening making me think it could be a loose connection with the TPMS receiver/antenna since it very first happened on hard cornering. Any ideas where that antenna is located? Is there one for each tire or a central box? Hoping to for any ideas or to check for loose connections.
Thanks!

I believe I found the issue if anyone else is having this problem, it was likely due to the cheaper after market side markers I installed causing interference. Going to try a ferrite bead around the cable and faraday tape to see if I can block the RF from the LED's. If not, I will likely go back to stock.
