A method for locating the wheels of a vehicle equipped with an electronic module, according to which the transmission, by transmitting antennas mounted on the vehicle, of a predetermined number of identification request signals is commanded, and the values representative of the rates of reception of these signals by the electronic modules are analyzed. According to the method, centroid calculations are performed to determine, for each wheel position, the “ideal position” {right arrow over (LAj)} for reception of the transmitting antennas covering the wheel position (a reception rate of 100%), and, for each electronic module, the “actual position” of the latter {right arrow over (WUi)} relative to the position {right arrow over (TAi)} of the transmitting antennas fitted to the vehicle, using as the criterion for determining this “actual position” {right arrow over (WUi)} the rate of reception, by the electronic module, of the signals transmitted by each transmitting antenna.
