A working tire pressure monitoring system helps you catch underinflation before it becomes a safety risk or a tire failure. Since 2007, new light vehicles in the U.S. have been required to include TPMS and a low tire pressure warning light.
At Danny’s Automotive in Midland, TX, we diagnose TPMS lights, replace faulty sensors, complete relearn procedures, and service stems and seals so your system reports accurately on every drive.
Signs You Need TPMS Service
- TPMS light stays on after adjusting pressures.
- TPMS light flashes at startup, then turns solid.
- One wheel shows no reading or dashes on the display.
- Sensors fail to read after a tire change, rotation, or seasonal swap.
- Leaks at metal valve stems or a cracked sensor body.
(A flashing light often indicates a system fault rather than simply low pressure.)
Comprehensive TPMS Diagnostics, Sensor Replacement & Service KitsWhat We Service
- TPMS diagnostics and reset
Scan the TPMS module, read live sensor data, verify placard pressures, and clear faults. - Sensor replacement and programming
Replace failed sensors, program IDs, and match positions after rotations or new tires. - TPMS relearn procedures
Perform the correct relearn for your vehicle: stationary, OBD, or auto learn. - Valve stem and seal service kits
Install new grommets, valve cores, caps, and hex nuts during tire work to maintain an airtight seal. - System education
Explain direct versus indirect TPMS, proper tire inflation, and when to return for service.
Direct vs Indirect TPMS
- Direct TPMSuses a pressure sensor inside each tire to transmit the actual PSI. It is fast and precise.
- Indirect TPMSestimates pressure using wheel speed data from ABS to infer when a tire is underinflated.
Many vehicles will also need a relearn after sensors are replaced or tires are rotated so the car knows which sensor is in which corner. Methods include stationary, OBD, and auto learn, depending on make and model.
How Long Do Sensors Last?
TPMS sensors contain sealed batteries. The typical lifespan is about 5 to 10 years, varying depending on driving conditions and temperature. When batteries age out, the sensor must be replaced.
