Thanks I did not know the date (my care is a 2001)
I also described the basic operation. The ABS Sensor types need no batteries (Well one big 12 volt job but that one also starts the car).
Frankly I'm not sure which is better.. but I kind of like the ABS sensor type because its hard to get a false reading from a passing vehicle that happen to have the same ESN on one of its wheels Seen that with by RF type sensord (Radio).
each type has advantages/disadvantages. the in tire monitor can give pressure readout ABS can't. On my vehicles with TPMS I can see tire pressure on all 4 tires if I desire on the instrument display. The ABS system doesn't require a battery nor does it require you to match tire to position if you rotate or swap winter and summer tires.
