Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Sensor





Disassembly

CAUTION: Tire pressure sensors are manufactured in multiple colors based on their application. When installing a new sensor, make sure the color of the sensor being installed matches the color of the sensor that was removed. The different colored sensors are not interchangeable.

NOTE: The sensor can be removed and installed without removing the strap or the cradle.

NOTE: Tire pressure sensors are equipped with Lithium-ion batteries and must be disposed of accordingly.





2. CAUTION: Do not use a large screwdriver. Apply minimum force during removal or damage to the sensor locking clip can occur.

Using a pocket screwdriver, or similar tool, remove the sensor locking clip.





3. CAUTION: Do not use a large screwdriver. Apply minimum force during removal or damage to the sensor can occur.

Using a pocket screwdriver, or similar tool, detach the sensor from the cradle.
4. Remove the sensor.

Assembly





1. CAUTION: Damage to the sensor can occur if excessive force is applied during sensor installation.

NOTE: Make sure the sensor is fully seated into the cradle. The sensor will make a "click" noise when correctly seated.

Position the sensor into the cradle by inserting the hinge end of the sensor into the hook end of the cradle and pushing the opposite end of the sensor down onto the cradle.





2. NOTE: The locking clip can only be fully seated when installed in the correct orientation. If the sensor locking clip cannot be fully inserted, then the sensor may not be fully seated on the cradle or the locking clip may be inserted backward.

Insert a new locking clip into the sensor.
