TPMS mysteriously works then quits.

[Gray97]

My 05 Tahoe keeps sending a code that my TPMS is out on my tire but as soon as I clear it and ignore it for a while it will start to work again to only repeat this cycle. I've already made two trips to the dealership where i bought it and they couldn't get the problem to repeat so they can't do anything. I was just wondering if anyone on here has seen this problem before and what they did to fix it because its pretty annoying.

A strategically placed piece of black tape on the instrument cluster works wonders.

Do you have aftermarket wheels? GM sensors? how old are the sensors?

That would be the first thing I'd look at. New sensors are $80-90 each plus $100 to install.

Think about the black tape.

The rims and sensors are stock and sensors are not even a year old.
