There is a problem with the tyre pressure indicator on the screen, (not TFR) it is showing the correct pressures both front and rear then during the ride both cease to register the pressure. This has happened on 2/3 occasions on different rides, currently not registering at all.
Background information: three weeks ago had a new set of tyres fitted and the next day the front tyre was losing pressure and there was air being lost from around the valve seating. Back to the tyre shop who accepted that the valve (plus the TPM) had been disturbed when the new tyre had been fitted. A new valve collar was replaced and everything was fine, both tyres holding pressure when the above problem has shown itself.

Are the TPM's independent of each other and if that is the case why both not showing on the screen?
 
I had the idea the TPMS wheel senders wake up via an internal centrifugal switch. They can also be woken up by a workshop device. If neither are broadcasting it suggests the reciever on the bike has a problem. Or both wheel senders have been unregistered by the bike?
