    I have a 2011 Cali that shows a TPMS error on start up. Is there any way to test to see if it is a problem with an individual sensor or a problem with the “receiver”. Any way to isolate which sensor if any is “bad”

    If you flip the TFT display from engine/oil temps to tire temps/pressures, do all tires report back data? None of them?
    Or, can you not get this screen to come up?

    If the sensors in the toms units haven’t been changed since new then the car likely needs new sensors. Do all of them at once. Even if it is only one you’ll be dealing with it on the others soon enough.

    Got mine on amazon and had them changed when I got new tires. Tire rack had them cheap too.

    If the TPMS sensors are original, then they past their typical battery life. If you have access to a Ferrari specific diagnostic tester, then you can check the battery life by communicating with the TPMS ECU.
    It is probably easiest to replace all four sensors when you replace your tires. I recommend using OEM Huf sensors (they make them for Ferrari), that you can purchase from an aftermarket vendor.
    If you do a search, you will find many threads on this subject.
