TPMS issues with wheel swap

Those sensors and their batteries can last quite awhile.  My pickup is still using the original factory sensors from 2007.  It's too bad that you can't change the battery.  When the battery dies, you have to replace the entire unit.  The old sensors were mounted to the wheel with a steel band.  This requires buying a steel band kit along with the sensors.  Modern sensors are coupled with the valve stem.  Either way, the tire must be removed from the wheel.

This set is 32..99  on Amazon and I have used them,   Not much to put in if you have a tire machine.

Autel make a universal sender that you can program that is duel frequency  that has a very nice Metal stem, but More money at 29.99 Ea. Any way not much of a job.

Don the sensors in My 2014 are still holding there own and they are on the third set of tires .
