Tire Pressure Sensor Replacement: Removal

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Honda S2000 and 2008 Honda S2000. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: For CR model, if tire sealant has been used for repair the flat tire, do the tire sealant removal (see WHEEL ALIGNMENT ) first. In this case, the tire removal procedure is normally, but be careful not to damage the tire pressure sensor is dropped into the inside of the tire, and not to spill the remaining tire sealant.
  1. Raise the vehicle, and support it with safety stands in the proper locations (see LIFT AND SUPPORT POINTS ).
  2. Remove the wheel with the faulty sensor.
  3. Remove the tire valve stem cap and the valve stem core, and let the tire deflate.
  4. Remove any balance weights, and then break the bead loose from the wheel with a commercially available tire changer (A).
    NOTE: NOTICE

    Note these items to avoid damaging the tire pressure sensor:

    • Do the outside of the wheel first.
    • Position the wheel as shown so the valve stem (B) is 90 degrees from the bead breaker (C) as shown below.
    • Do not position the bead breaker of the tire changer too close to the rim.

  7. Remove and discard the valve stem grommet (A) from the tire pressure sensor (B).
    NOTE:
    • The valve stem grommet might stay in the wheel; make sure you remove it.
