Tire Pressure Sensor: Notes
CAUTION:
DO NOT try to install tire pressure sensor in a steel wheel or aftermarket wheel. Use only in original style factory wheels.
CAUTION:
The use of tire sealants is strictly prohibited for vehicles equipped with the Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM) system. Tire sealants can clog tire pressure sensors.
NOTE:
The average life of the grommet of the tire pressure monitor valve sub-assembly is approximately 5 years, at which time it must be replaced. If the valve is leaking air, is less than 5 years old and there is no problem with grommets, retighten the valve nut to 27 INCH lbs. (3 N.m). Whenever the tires must be replaced, replace grommets for tire pressure sensors as well.
