Question on Tire Pressure Sensors

[RandysWay]

When I rotate my tires, will it screw up the tire pressure sensors? Does it matter which sensor is where? If I put my front driver tire on the rear passenger, does it matter? Thanks.

No, it should not scew uo your sensors. They are limited range transmitters.

the base TPM system does not keep track of tire location. the premium TPM system uses three wheel well mounted transponders to keep track of tire location. neither system requires retraining after tire rotation.

THREE wheel well sensors? how does it figure out the 4th wheel?

or is there 2 in the front, one in the back that picks up both rear wheel signals? (no engine to block radio transmission).

Thanks for the replies! Does the Daytona have the Premium or Base TPM?

the TPM sensors broadcast signal is received by WCM (wireless control module) in both base and premium systems. the wheel well mounted transponders are only to determine location. since the WCM knows the location of three of the wheels, it deduces that the fourth wheel is in the location without a transponder. also, on vehicles with full size spare, since the sensors broadcast more frequently when the wheels are turning, i knows which wheels are mounted on the car and which on is the spare (not turning).

When putting on the bra, you have to cut three plastic rivets that hold the plastic wheel well to the front and screw in the anchors. While doing this, I noticed a module on each side, and I had no idea why they would place it there... Now it makes sense!

The service manual I got from here is handy, but it doesn't seem to cover this stuff!

Man that is cool.
I think my wife uses the same technolog to track me and monitor if my wheel is turning or not.
