TL V6-3.5L (2007)
NOTE: Always use a new valve stem and new screw.
2. Before installing the tire pressure sensor, clean the mating surfaces on the sensor and the wheel.
3. Install the tire pressure sensor (A) to the wheel (B), and tighten the valve nut (C) finger tight. Make sure the pressure sensor is resting on the
wheel.
4. Tighten the valve nut to the specified torque while holding the tire pressure sensor toward (D) the wheel. You may hear a snap or pop as you
tighten the nut. This is normal.
NOTE:
-
Do not reuse any nut that has been tightened, even one time, to the specified torque, as it is deformed inside (E).
-
Do not use air or electric impact tools to tighten a valve stem nut.
-
Tightening the nut above the specified torque can damage the nut.
-
Make sure that there is no space between the sensor and the wheel.
5. Lube the tire bead, and 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 install the tire onto the wheel.
