I'm gonna guess two things:

#1 - That was typed on a smart phone.

#2 - You want to know if you can swap the TPMS senders between wheels in your own garage.

I could not. Had to take all 10 wheels to a tire shop where they got at the sensors by dismounting tire bead on one side.

I have done it several times... It is a pain in the ass, but breaking the bead on one side can be done.

The more sidewall your tire has, the easier the job is.

I just stand on the sidewall until the bead pops down, reach in there with required small screwdriver, i think that's what i used last time, and dismantle it.

You have to get special rubber valve stems. The sensor is screwed to the valve stem from the inside.
