5. Installation Instructions

Professional installation is highly recommended.

5.1. Removing Old Sensor (Clamp-in Type)

Remove the valve core to allow all the air to escape. Discard the old valve core.
Remove the mounting nut from the stem and allow the sensor to fall into the wheel/tire assembly. Discard old nut.
Bounce the wheel/tire to ensure that the sensor has fallen free.
Break the bead free from the rim on the shallow side first, then follow by breaking the bead from the deep side.
If a band-mounted sensor is present, mark its location on the tire prior to removal. Position the Tire/Wheel Assembly so that the sensor is located at 6 and 12 o'clock positions at all times when breaking the bead.
Liberally lubricate the bead and position the wheel assembly such that the mount/demount head is slightly ahead of the sensor (or the mark on sidewall if band-mounted). The tire should dismount without coming in contact with and causing damage to the sensor. Repeat when removing the bottom bead.
Remove sensor and inspect for evidence of damage or tire sealants. Replace sensor if necessary. If the sensor is to be re-installed, remove the sensor to a dry, clean location.

5.2. Removing Old Sensor (Snap-in Type)

Remove T-10 screw from back of sensor using 20140 tool, then using a standard TTV tool pull old rubber valve stem through hole and discard.

5.3. Installing New Sensor (Clamp-in Type)

When installing a clamp-in sensor, a new grommet, mounting nut, special nickel-plated valve core, and sealing cap must be used. NEVER RE-USE OLD COMPONENTS.

Insert the sensor through the rim hole with the flat side of the sensor facing toward the wheel.
Tighten the mounting nut to the specified torque as defined in the Schrader TPMS Application Guide, using the 20142 Mounting Nut Torque Tool.

5.4. Installing New Sensor (Snap-in Type)

Recommended method for assembling a Snap-in sensor:

Attach TTV tool to valve stem. Insert the valve into the sensor body aligning the flats on the brass stem to the flats on the receiving hole of the sensor body. Use valve pull tool to prevent valve from spinning. Use the T-10 tool to assemble the valve to the sensor body before inserting the assembly into the wheel rim hole. NEVER RE-USE OLD COMPONENTS.
To install the sensor into the wheel, use a standard TTV tool to pull the stem straight through the rim hole. To avoid damaging the stem and/or sensor, a rubber mallet or similar device may be placed between the tool and rim flange to ensure the valve is pulled straight.

5.5. Tire Installation

Position the rim so that the sensor is 90° or 1/4 turn to the right of the mount/demount head.
Liberally lubricate the beads of the tire. While the machine is rotating, maintain pressure on the tire between the starting point of the sensor and the mount/demount head to keep the bead of the tire in the drop center of the wheel. This will allow the tire to be installed without damage to the sensor. Note: All tires are mounted with the sensor installed in the wheel.

CAUTION: Valve Core

DO NOT re-use the removed valve core. Always replace with a new electroless nickel-plated valve core (aluminum stem). Use of non-electroless nickel-plated cores with aluminum valve stems can result in galvanic corrosion and loss of tire pressure. Tighten core with an approved valve core tool to 0.23Nm - 0.56Nm (2 in-lbs. - 5 in-lbs.). Do Not Over tighten!

7. Operating Principles of TPMS

The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) continuously monitors your vehicle's tire pressure to ensure safety and optimal performance. Sensors installed in each wheel send pressure information to a receiver in your vehicle. When the system detects low tire pressure or a malfunction, it activates the TPMS indicator light on your dashboard.

Image: Diagram illustrating how direct TPMS sensors transmit tire pressure data to the vehicle's receiver.

7.1. TPMS Light Indicators

Solid Light: If your TPMS light comes on and stays solid, it indicates that one or more tires have low air pressure. Some vehicles provide a visual representation of each tire's pressure and may or may not include the TPMS symbol.
Flashing Light: If your TPMS light comes on and flashes for 60-90 seconds before staying solid, it indicates a system malfunction.

8. Maintenance and Best Practices

Regular maintenance of your TPMS is crucial for its proper function and your safety. Follow these step-by-step best practices:

Check for the Light:
If the vehicle is equipped with TPMS, the TPMS indicator light should illuminate on the dashboard during start-up. If the light appears and then disappears, the system is operational.
- Solid Light: One or more tires are 20% below recommended placard pressure. Solution: add air to meet placard recommendation.
- Flashing Light: Indicates a dead sensor battery, missing sensor, broken sensor or an incorrect sensor for the vehicle type. Solution: replace sensor, relearn sensor.
Inspect Valve Caps:
A missing or improper valve cap can lead to corrosion, limiting the serviceability of a TPMS sensor. Improper valve caps include chrome-plated plastic caps, non-sealing caps and vanity caps. Ensure a sealing valve cap is always installed.
Check TPMS Sensors:
Using a TPMS scan tool, test each installed sensor. Remember a flashing or solid light may have already signaled that there is an error with the TPMS system; this test confirms that alert.
Access Vehicle's Computer:
Using a TPMS scan tool, check for any Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC's) related to the vehicle's TPMS system. You can also view sensor history and identify system faults.
Review Audit Report (Check Tool Capability):
After service on the vehicle is completed, a print out of a detailed "audit report" should be provided. The report shows the status of the TPMS system. Notes will also be included on a physical inspection and service recommendations. This is a great tool to show customers why service is required.

9. Troubleshooting

If your TPMS system is not functioning correctly after installation or during normal operation, refer to the following common issues and solutions:

Problem	Possible Cause	Solution
TPMS light is solid ON	Low tire pressure (20% below placard)	Inflate tires to recommended placard pressure.
TPMS light flashes for 60-90 seconds, then stays solid	System malfunction (dead sensor battery, missing/broken sensor, incorrect sensor type)	Replace faulty sensor(s), then perform relearn procedure. Use a TPMS scan tool to diagnose.
Relearn procedure fails	Incorrect installation, damaged sensor, improper relearn steps, incompatible wheels/tires	Verify all installation steps, retest with scan tool, ensure correct tire pressure, consult vehicle service guide or authorized dealership.
Sensor not recognized by scan tool	Sensor not active, faulty sensor, scan tool issue	Ensure sensor is properly installed and activated. Check scan tool functionality. Replace sensor if necessary.
False alarms or inconsistent readings	Interference, faulty sensor, incorrect tire pressure, non-OEM wheels/tires	Check tire pressure manually. Ensure proper valve caps are used. Verify sensor integrity with a scan tool. Consult vehicle service guide for compatibility with non-OEM parts.
