Repair Procedures: Removal
- Remove the valve core and deflate the tire.
- Remove the side of the tire bead area from the wheel using tire changing machine.
- The tire bead should be broken approx. 90° from the valve side of the wheel. The bead breaker should not be set too deep.
- Avoid tire/tool contact with the valve on dismount.
- Dismount should end near the valve.
- Rotate the wheel clockwise.
- Must check whether the valve (air inlet portion of the silver) deviates from its original location during transportation. Then make sure that the valve (metal brackets) are assembled in the position indented from the original location.
- Push the valve into the specified location (for metal brackets to fit inside) in order to prevent the valve from deviating from the specified location while being tightened. Apply the specified torque (8Nm) and do not reuse the nut.
- Push the valve into the valve hole to ensure the seal washer contacts the rim.
- Hold the housing with two fingers and use one finger to push the valve in the valve axial direction.
- The laser marking in the housing must be visible.
- When the valve is fully inserted so that the contact between the sensor and the rim while keeping hands on the wheel nut tightening will start Wed.
- While maintaining the position of the valve and the sensor is mounted nut.
- Apply tire soap or lubrication to the top and bottom tire beads.
- To fit the bottom bead, position the sensor in the 5 o'clock direction from the head on the tire changing machine
- Place the tire on the rim so the bottom bead touches the edge of the rim behind the sensor (the 6 o'clock direction). Rotate the rim clockwise, and push down on the tire at the 3 o'clock position to fit bottom bead.
- After bottom bead is on tire, rotate the rim until the sensor is in the 5 o'clock direction from the head on the tire changing machine. Push down on the tire at the 3 o'clock position and rotate the rim clockwise to fit the top bead.
4 - Inflate the tire until both beads are seated.
- In the case of TPMS sensor failure, TPMS sensor needs learning. Replace faulty sensors with new ones and conduct the learning process of TPMS sensors.
