Sarcastic aren't we ?
People who give info should complete their statements, it would help the less learned in finding out.

That's why I included directions to find the link. If I had just plopped the link somebody would ask how I got it. What statement was left unfinished?

Look, this forum is to help and educate.
Blue made a statement about buying an Ebay item. He should have given a link to to it. That's all.

I normally buy new sensors and valve stems when I get tires replaced, or every other time, on my cars. Plan to replace them regularly. It's a small expense, but everything keeps working.

Am update since the OP hasn't posted whether they got new sensors or not. My new sensors failed.. or supposedly failed... again this past weekend. Same symptoms as the OP - odd loss of signal at the rear tires, randomly on either side. Sometimes they would "be" there, sometimes not. So, today I went to start the car and the battery was partially dead.. hmm... Jumped the car and went to the garage and had a discussion with the head mechanic who is also a friend, so I trust his word. A dying battery could conceivably be a cause - new battery on it's way. Other items that can cause odd drop outs are any RF interference - Bluetooth enabled aftermarket stereos tend to be a lead culprit. Of which I have one, but my issues didn't start when I installed the stereo 5 months ago. Just putting it out there for general info... when I get my new battery in we'll see if that changes anything, else it'll be all new sensors and another reset to see if we can isolate any further incidents.

letterman7- Be interesting to learn if a new battery helps the sensors you have now..

A weak battery for the car can’t keep up with the electrical wonders 12.4 volts is a dead battery in these trucklets
