Where are TPMS sensors?

I'm thinking about rotating the tires on my 2007 TSX myself soon. I was just wondering where the TPMS sensors are and what things I need to be careful with so that I don't damage them.

Cheers,

They are inside the tire, against the interior of the rim.

They are part of your valve stem. So unless you're going to be pulling on them you'll be fine.

Nice picture. I'm just curious how the sensor data are collected by the on-board computer? Some kind of wireless link?

Cheers,

I don't think the TPMS sensors are RFID, so they must have batteries in them for the wireless transceiver.

I don't own a vehicle with TPMS (by choice) & haven't researched them.

Does anyone know if the batteries are replaceable?
