Could be a bad battery in that particular sensor.
New sensor maybe?
Or rotate the tire and see if the trouble spot moves with the rotation.

I have a reset tool, put it in the reset mode, put the reset tool by the FL wheel it honks, FR no honk, RL honk, RR honk, when i switched it front to back,How are you determining which sensor is causing the problem? Does the TPMS tool give you that info or are you getting a C0755 DTC? As suggested by 08 Canyon, move the wheel to another position and see if the problem follows. Are you using OEM or aftermarket sensors?
But thats the third sensor in that wheeel in less than a year, and if i move the wheel to another location it does the sameCould be a bad battery in that particular sensor.

Not losing any pressure, i use a tpms reset tool that works fine with the other sensorsAre you losing tire pressure on that wheel or just a sensor reading. How do you know it is that wheel?
Yes the wheels are OEM, the truck is 5 yrs old and i live in the caribbean were its 85 to 95 degrees all year round, one of the oem sensors went out so i just changed all of them beause i had read somwere they had a battery life of five to seven years, i bought a dorman from a local dealer when the oem sensor went bad and it didnt work, so i ordered 4 from amazon, changed them all out but this particular wheel sames to be a pain in the ass, dont no why.You've pretty much narrowed it down to a problem involving that particular wheel. Some info seems to be missing. Are these the OEM wheels that came on the truck? Why have you been replacing the OEM sensors? The battery life on TPMS sensors should be good for ten years. What are "orange" sensors? It doesn't make sense that the system suddenly doesn't recognize that particular wheel if all that was changed was the sensor, three times.
Well the first one i used when i changed it was a dorman, that didnt even work a day, anyways i will have to try the rockauto ones and see what happen, will keep you updatedOkay, looks like you're back "full circle" to the TPMS Sensor. What else could it be? The only suggestion I would have, at this point is try an OEM sensor. They are about 15 bucks more at RockAuto. Your review on Amazon indicates that this would not be the first "Orange" TPMS Sensor to fail on you. It boils down to bad sensors or sloppy installation.
Yes they are the same and im sorry, how do i delete the vwalton one and just use the edwinw42This Thread has me a bit confused. Are "vwalton" and "EdwinW42" the same person? If so, wouldn't it be easier to just stick with one username?
I may be in the minority, but whenever I replace a part that has limited access such as TPMS/water pumps/ cooling fans/wheel hubs, etc, I opt to spend the extra cash to get either OEM or well know brands of aftermarket parts. Saves time from chasing problems later.
Huh?I would have checked the delete drivers info center and on star option had that been offered. Gimicks to to raise there asking price and worthless to me. Hell ya
OnStar and TPMS are two different animals. The US Congress, during one rare session that they ever passed any legislation, made it mandatory that all automakers install a system to warn drivers of low tire pressures. TPMS is not a "gimmick" dreamed up by GM. Blame Congress.I would have checked the delete drivers info center and on star option had that been offered.
