Jokes on them. My TPMS sensors died a while ago, and I haven’t felt the need to fix it.

The rfid tag is probably still good and whatever is on the receiving end isn’t working.

It seems that the system is not RFID or passive, but an active system that requires a battery to transmit data. It’s far more likely that the batteries, which typically lasts about the length of time I’ve owned my car, are just drained.

TPMS are transponders.
