Installation of TPMS Sensor
1. Insert the new sensor through the valve stem hole making sure the flat side of the
sensor is toward the rim.
2. Using a standard valve stem tool pull the stem straight through the hole until the valve
stem is fully seated. To avoid damage to the sensor and the rim, use a rubber mallet
or block of wood placed between the rim and the tool to make sure the valve is pulled
straight. (see Fig. 4)
TIRE MOUNTING:
1. Set the tire on tire changer after setting rim location so the TPMS sensor is setting in
the location area as shown below. (see Fig. 5)
