Tire Pressure Indicator Sensor Replacement

1. Raise the vehicle on a suitable support. Refer to Lifting and Jacking the Vehicle .
2. Remove the tyre/wheel assembly from the vehicle. Refer to Tyre and Wheel Removal and Installation .
3. Dismount the tire from the rim.

Note: When servicing the tyre pressure sensor always use a new Schrader® tyre pressure monitoring (TPM) sensor and a new TORX screw during installation.




4. Remove the TORX screw (1) from the tyre pressure sensor (2) and pull it straight off the tyre pressure valve stem (3).

Caution: Do not scratch or damage the clear coating on aluminium wheels with the tyre changing equipment. Scratching the clear coating could cause the aluminium wheel to corrode and the clear coating to peel from the wheel.

5. Remove the tyre pressure valve stem by pulling it through the rim.

Caution: Refer to Fastener Caution in the Preface section.





Note: 

•	Ensure the flat of the valve lines up with the flats of the snap in the enclosure.

•	TPM valves and TORX screws are single use items.

1. Assemble the tyre pressure sensor (2) to the valve stem and install the new TORX screw (3), tighten to 1.3 N·m (11.5 lb in).

Note: Use an approved tyre mounting lubricant. DO NOT use silicon or corrosive base compounds to lubricate the tyre bead and the wheel rim. A corrosive type compound can cause tyre or rim deterioration.

2. Apply tyre soap to the rubber portion of the valve stem (1).



3. Using a tyre valve stem mounting tool, pull the valve stem through in a direction parallel to the valve hole on the rim.

Note: Snap Fit TPM sensors are shipped in the OFF mode. The sensor will exit its OFF state when the tyre is inflated.

4. Mount the tyre to the rim.
5. Install the tyre/wheel assembly on the vehicle. Refer to Tyre and Wheel Removal and Installation .
6. Lower the vehicle.
7. Re-learn the tyre pressure sensors.
