From what I read on other forums, it does not. Can't remember the exact details, but something about that the sensors don't "activate" until the car hits a certain mph so I guess they have to be in motion for them to be working.

basically you take a pvc pipe, cap it on one end, throw in your tpms sensors, throw a cap on the other end, drill a whole, insert a valve stem, seal everything up and then pressurize the pump to whatever air pressure you need to be it.

I might give it a try tomorrow

A great recipe for a pipe bomb.
