Yes, there is a sensor on each wheel. They hardly ever fail, but may need cleaning. The connecting cable is often the cause of a fault due to a broken wire that opens when turning the steering wheel or the suspension flexes. There is lot of information on the forum on this subject if you do a search or check out the DIY sticky near the top of the forum page.
Here is a sheet from the jagrepair.com with some information, there is a lot more available there, including videos on cleaning and repair.
