    One of my sensors is not working would this cause the reading in the dash to not register for any tires ?

    If your model normally displays all 4 tires (they all can but the SR s/w blocks in favor of the idiot light) then 1 sensor usually shows a dash or no reading for that tire. The dash light with the tire cutaway icon should illuminate showing a problem and maybe a message in the center display.

    Yep, I have the same issue with my truck right now actually. I wasn't getting any tire readings for multiple days, and then finally my TPMS light came on the dash. Hooked up to tech stream, transmitter ID 4 for me isn't working. Code C2124.

    Been meaning to go to discount and have them throw a new one in for me. $60 installed for a new sensor they said.

    I mean, I think you can take the sensor out and pry it open and unseal the sensor to replace the battery. Seen a YouTube video on it. Is it worth it? Probably absolutely not. Just get a new sensor installed.

    So I fixed it as I drove 10 minutes at 50 mph and it reset itself. Maybe when they rotated my tires something was off.
