Abstract
An apparatus and method include, among other things, providing a plurality of sensors for a tire pressure monitoring system where each sensor is associated with tire parameter properties and has sensor parameters. Each sensor has a unique initial identification. A new unique identification is automatically generated for each sensor to replace the initial identification in response to a predetermined condition that is associated with at least one sensor parameter.

A method comprising:
- providing a plurality of sensors for a tire pressure monitoring system, each sensor being associated with tire parameter properties and having sensor parameters, and wherein each sensor has a unique initial identification;
- and
- automatically generating a new unique identification for each sensor to replace the initial identification in response to a predetermined condition that is associated with at least one sensor parameter.
An apparatus comprising:
- a vehicle controller;
- a tire pressure monitoring system in communication with the vehicle controller;
- and
- a plurality of sensors for the tire pressure monitoring system, each sensor being associated with tire parameter properties and having sensor parameters, and wherein each sensor has a unique initial identification, and wherein a new unique identification for each sensor is automatically generated to replace the initial identification in response to a predetermined condition that is associated with at least one sensor parameter.
