After I had new rims/tires put on, My sensors do not work. In fact, I don't even think I still have them. The place that put my new wheels on still has my old ones. Where are the sensors located? And how could it be fixed?

The tire pressure sensors were / are inside the original rims . Actually they are screwed to the inside of the valve stem and set flush on the rim ( inside the tire rim assy. ) You may want to call them and ask if they did transfer your pressure sensors to the new rims . They usually do it anyways but I would check as they are a little expensive to replace .

Okay, About how much do you think it should be to get them re-installed?

to install them they have to unmount and remount the tires.

So, basically they have to take apart 8 wheels, transfer the sensors, then put them all back together?
