Abstract
A method for reading information contained in an RFID chip embedded in the mass of a tire of a motor vehicle wheel equipped with a wheel unit forming part of a tire pressure monitoring system, wherein the wheel unit detects, irrespective of the condition of the wheel (whether or not it is punctured), a wheel removal operation and then an operation for re-inflating the new tire, and the RFID chip is polled by the wheel unit when the re-inflation operation has been detected.
