2004 S430 TPMS module

Anyone know where I can get a used TPMS module for a 2004 S430? I bought 4 new sensors thinking it was the problem since they haven't been changed. Currently, I'm still getting an error message after resetting the monitor. Also, if I get the module, is it hard to install myself? From what I understand the module is someone around the driverside footwell.....

Are you receiving a signal from the sensors to your dash display? Does the error clear using the the reset button and then reappear when you restart the car?

I will try to reset the TPMS and it tells me the monitor is broken not the actual sensors on each tire. I even tried removing the fuse for the sensor yesterday and see if it would reset itself and it didn't. Each time i restart the car the message reappears after I hit the "R" button.

I would go ahead and do a search on this site. I remember a discussion about TPMS sensors going bad that are on the car itself inside each wheel well, that may be how you find out where your problem is. I don't have any more knowledge or experience on your problem.

TPMS sensors inside each wheel well

Hi, I've already replaced each of the sensors in each wheel well a little over a month ago. I think it's the monitor itself that may be bad.

A Mercedes obviously!
I've had the TPMS act up on me a couple of times and I started a thread on it. Turns out it was just one of mine going dead but it is well known that the module itself goes south too.
