TPMS Sensor
A TPMS sensor is the electronic device inside the tyre that monitors air pressure and transmits readings to the vehicle's dashboard. Sensors have a battery life of 5-10 years and must be replaced when the battery dies. Tyre technicians must take care not to damage sensors during tyre changes and should reprogram or re-learn sensors after fitting to ensure correct operation.
