Tire Pressure Sensor Replacement
NOTICE
Each tire pressure sensor contains a lithium anode battery that is not removable. The complete should be disposed of according to local battery
disposal guidelines or requirements. An improperly disposed of battery can be harmful to the environment.
Removal
1. Raise and support the vehicle See: Maintenance/Vehicle Lifting/Service and Repair.
2. Remove the wheel with the faulty sensor.
3. Remove the tire valve stem cap and the valve core, and let the tire deflate.
4. Remove any wheel balance weights, then break the bead loose from the wheel with a commercially available tire changer (A).
NOTICE
Note these items to avoid damaging the tire pressure sensor:
-
Do the outside of the wheel first.
-
Position the wheel as shown so the valve stem (B) is 90 degrees from the bead breaker (C) as shown.
-
Do not position the bead breaker of the tire changer too close to the rim.
5. Position the wheel so the tire machine (A) and tire iron (B) are next to the valve stem (C) and will move away from it when the machine starts.
Then remove the tire from the wheel.
