Removal and Replacement
Sensor - Tire Pressure Monitoring (TPM) System
Service Repair No - 74.10.05
Remove
1. Using a jack, raise vehicle and support with stands.
WARNING: Do not work on or under a vehicle supported only by a jack. Always support the vehicle on safety stands.
2. Remove 5 nuts securing road wheel, remove wheel.
CAUTION: Never use high pressure cleaning equipment on a wheel with a TPM sensor fitted.
3. Remove tire from rim.
CAUTION: To avoid damage to TPM sensor, break tire bead from rim 180 degrees from valve stem.
4. Remove valve from wheel and collect washer.
5. Carefully remove TPM sensor from rim.
CAUTION:
- If a tire sealing fluid has been used the TPM sensor must be replaced.
- If sensor has been removed, the complete valve must be replaced.
Refit
1. Clean TPM sensor filter surface (on underside of sensor).
CAUTION:
- If the TPM sensor filter is dirty the sensor must be replaced.
- Do not use compressed air to clean TPM sensors. Do not clean sensors with solvents or any cleaning agent of any source, use a clean dry cloth only.
2. Fit Torx bolt and adapter to TPM sensor, finger tighten bolt.
3. Carefully fit TPM sensor to rim, fit washer and valve, tighten valve to 3.5 Nm (2.6 lbf.ft).
CAUTION: Do not exceed these torque figures as damage to sensor will occur if overtightened.
4. Insert brace supplied with valve into adapter.
5. Ensure sensor is pushed fully home to the rim and tighten Torx bolt to 3.5 Nm (2.6 lbf.ft)
CAUTION: Do not exceed these torque figures as damage to sensor will occur if overtightened.
6. Remove brace from adapter.
7. Fit tire and balance wheel.
8. Fit road wheel and tighten nuts to 140 Nm (103 lbf.ft).
9. Remove stands and lower jack.
10. An initialization process must be carried out after the following:.
- A tire pressure has been adjusted
- A TPM sensor has been replaced
- A wheel has changed position, e.g.swapped axles or the spare fitted as a road wheel
11. To initialize the TPM system, turn ignition key to position 'II', depress and hold TPM button, until SET TIRE PRESSURE message appears on the instrument pack message center (approximately 4 seconds). The system is now initialized.
NOTE: Some vehicles may display a re-arranged message TIRE PRESSURE SET, this also acknowledges that the system is initialized.
