APREMIUM APTPMS TPMS Sensor Installation Instructions

Product Structure Diagram

• Valve Stem Screw
• Sensor
• Metal Valve Stem Body
• Valve Stem Nut
• Valve Stem Cap

Note: TPMS products are compliant. It is recommended to perform a diagnosis with a TPMS tool to confirm functionality, though not mandatory. Recording the ID and position of each sensor is advised.

Installation Procedure

1. Remove the tire from the vehicle and place it on the tire changer. Remove the valve cap to deflate the tire. Use the machine's separating clamp to press down on the tire bead and loosen the tire from the rim. Avoid pressing directly from the valve stem position.

2. Remove the outer tire, or use special equipment to press the tire down to expose the valve stem for sensor installation or removal.

3. Remove the old sensor. Use a screwdriver to remove the set screw and sensor from the valve stem, then loosen the nut and remove the valve.

4. Loosen the valve stem cap and valve stem nut, clean the valve stem hole, pass the valve stem through the valve hole of the wheel, and secure the valve stem nut from the outside of the wheel. Tighten the nut by hand while keeping the sensor pressed to the wheel rim.

5. Use a torque wrench and tighten the nut with 4 Nm torque. Ensure the sensor is securely fitted to the valve stem, with no looseness or air leakage.

6. Pump up the tire.

7. Perform tire balancing.

8. Install the tire and inflate it to the manufacturer's recommended standard pressure.

Note: If your vehicle does not support the Auto Relearn Procedure, seek assistance from a professional mechanic for OBD II or Stationary Relearn Procedure.

How to Relearn TPMS Sensor After Installation

Attention: Carefully read your vehicle's user manual and confirm the TPMS learning mode.

Auto Relearn Procedure

• Place the smart key more than 5 meters (16.5 feet) from the vehicle and park for 30 minutes.
• Start the vehicle and drive continuously for over 10 minutes at a stable speed of 25 km/h (approx. 16 mph) or higher.
• Check the dashboard. If the tire pressure warning light is off, the relearn process is complete.

OBDII Relearn Procedure (Relevant Tools Required)

• Prepare an OBD tire pressure diagnostic tool.
• Start the vehicle and connect the OBD diagnostic tool with the vehicle's OBD port.
• Operate the diagnostic tool to enter the tire pressure sensor relearn procedure.
• Follow the instructions indicated by the diagnostic tool to perform the OBD relearn procedure and obtain a successful learning result.
• Start the vehicle and drive continuously for over 10 minutes at a stable speed of 25 km/h (approx. 16 mph) or higher. Ensure the tire pressure warning light is off and the relearn process is complete.

Note: OBDII Relearn Procedure is the most stable way to recognize a new TPMS.

Stationary Relearn Procedure (Tools and Specific Techniques Required)

A stationary (sometimes called manual) relearn procedure allows new TPMS sensor IDs to be transferred to the vehicle's ECU without driving. This requires a TPMS activation tool to trigger the sensors when the vehicle is in learn mode. The vehicle then uses an RF signal to communicate with the ECU to establish sensor locations.

Example for 2014 Ford Escape (standard ignition):

1. Inflate all tires.
2. Turn off the ignition.
3. Press and release the brake pedal.
4. Cycle ignition from 'off' to 'run' three times, ending in 'run'. A horn sounds twice.
5. Use tool to activate the left front sensor. A single horn will sound.
6. Repeat for the right front sensor, right rear sensor, and left rear sensor.

Cautions

• Please note and follow all precautions and cautions in the installation instructions.
• If you lack sufficient installation skills and knowledge, it is recommended to have the TPMS sensor replaced at a tire repair store or a professional automotive repair store.
• Incorrect installation may result in the vehicle's TPMS sensor not functioning properly and/or may result in damage to the TPMS sensor.
