Tire Pressure Sensor

The installation of new Tire Pressure Monitoring System sensors requires using sensors with matching colors because sensors of different colors will not function interchangeably. The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) remains unavailable for all vehicles during the year 2007 which feature different tire pressure specifications for the front and rear tires. Installation of this sensor happens without needing to detach the cradle or strap but users must properly handle the Lithium-ion battery. Tire removal from the wheel should happen with caution to protect sensor integrity alongside cradle and strap while performing tire installation and removal. Use the pocket screwdriver to unlock the sensor locking clip slowly without putting excessive pressure before detaching the sensor from its cradle. During sensor assembly you should seat the device entirely into the cradle until it clicks to signal perfect placement. To install the new locking clip into the sensor it must be placed so the clip can seat completely. Place the tire back on the wheel while keeping in mind that new tire pressure sensors should be activated by inflating tires to their recommended pressure for at least a two-minute period before starting sensor training.

The Lithium-ion battery contained in the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) sensor produces dangerous chemicals in extreme mechanical damage situations. Patients should perform water flushes on their eyes or skin contacts for 15 minutes then seek medical help immediately. Consumers should contact medical assistance at once if a TPMS sensor battery gets swallowed. TPMS sensors must be disposed through proper hazardous material procedures because each sensor exists in distinct color-based applications and new sensors must have matching colors to the removed ones due to non-interchangeability between different colored sensors. The sensor operates independently from the strap or cradle system so it can be installed without their removal. First detach the tire from the wheel while avoiding harm to the sensor locking clip through the use of a large screwdriver and limited force application. With help from a pocket screwdriver or similar tool detach the sensor from the cradle by removing its locking clip and then separate the sensor. When installing the sensor you must ensure it fully enters the cradle until it produces a clicks sound to indicate proper positioning then transfer the hinge end of the sensor to the hook end of the cradle and push down the opposite end. To install the new locking clip successfully it must face the proper direction since full seating requires correct alignment but check that both the sensor is completely in place and the locking clip has the right orientation. Place the tire on the wheel before activation of the new tire pressure sensor through tire mounting and recommended pressure inflation which requires a minimum two-minute waiting period before starting sensor training.

A harmed TPMS sensor contains a Lithium-ion battery that produces dangerous substances when a sensor experiences brutal mechanical trauma therefore users should rinse skin or eye areas right away using water for at least 15 minutes until getting medical care. Contact a physician immediately whenever someone swallows the battery. The correct safety methods defined for hazardous waste disposal must be utilized during TPMS sensor disposal because improper disposal could lead to life-threatening injuries. The installation of a new sensor should use a sensor of matching color so that different color sensors cannot be substituted. Installation along with removal of the sensor becomes possible without needing to remove the strap or cradle. The tire detachment process starts with wheel tire removal using appropriate mounting or dismounting techniques which prevent sensor and cradle and strap damage. Insert the pocket screwdriver to remove the sensor locking clip with caution before you detach the sensor from the cradle and remove it. To assemble the sensor properly place it completely into the cradle until it clicks to confirm correct positioning. Set the new locking clip properly inside the sensor while confirming that the sensor stays in position. Check sensor seating if insertion is partially obstructed. When installing the tire it is crucial to activate new tire pressure sensors when they arrive in battery-saving state through tire inflation to recommended pressure levels for at least two minutes before starting sensor training protocols. Train the tire pressure sensor(s) following necessary procedures.

It is necessary to check that the new TPMS sensor has the same color as the previously removed sensor since sensors from different batches are not compatible. You can replace and install the sensor by maintaining the strap and cradle during removal and replacement and the sensor uses a Lithium-ion battery that needs correct disposal. Start the procedure by removing the tire from the wheel yet take caution against heavy-duty screwdriver use while using light force to protect the locking clip from damage. Make use of a pocket screwdriver or equivalent tool to unharness the sensor from its cradle and locking clip correctly before taking out the sensor itself. Check that the sensor seats entirely within the cradle before assembly because the correct installation produces a distinctive "click" sound. Insert a new locking clip into the sensor slot while maintaining correct orientation until it fits completely unless the sensor position is off. Place the tire on its wheel and then activate the new tire pressure sensor by installing it on a wheel and tightening the tire with recommended pressure while the sensor activates itself out of battery saver mode. The sensor training process can begin only after waiting for two minutes.

The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) sensors will become active when you place the ignition switch into the ON position. Insert the Tire Pressure Monitor Activation Tool 180 degrees away from the tire valve stem while placing it against the left front tire sidewall. During the activation process the tool indicates successful sensor responses with a green light flash together with an audio signal. Push the test button of the Tire Pressure Monitor Activation Tool twice to activate the sensor while following the correct procedure. Perform this activation on all other tires in addition to the left front wheel. A check of the symptom chart must happen following sensor adjustment if the TPMS indicator persists in being lit.

Contact a physician immediately and follow proper hazardous material disposal procedures for TPMS sensors.

Flush any contact with skin or eyes immediately with water for at least 15 minutes and seek medical attention.

A Lithium-ion battery.

Contact a physician right away.

Document them using a scan tool for warranty claims.

Different colored sensors are not interchangeable.

Check that the sensor is properly seated or that the locking clip is not backward.

Wait at least 2 minutes before proceeding with the sensor training procedure.
