My light came on to indicate that the pressure in my tire was low. When I went to put air in the tire the stem just broke off. Took it to Pep Boys and they said I needed a tire pressure sensor and it would cost $125. Maybe I am not too smart about tire pressure sensors. Was that price crazy? Why wouldnt I just need a new valve stem if it broke off
 
The stem is part of the sensor, but the price is way too high, you can get a replacement sensor for around $30 on ebay or amazon and most tire places would probably charge around $20-$40 to install it.
