Removal And Installation: Installation

NOTE:

In case of replacement of the pressure sensor, connect the scan tool to the vehicle, select "Radio Frequency Hub (RFH)" in the " Miscellaneous functions " and launch the procedure " Learning ID TPM sensors " carefully following the instructions.

NOTE:

To verify the correct operation of the sensor make sure the meter TPM is updated to the latest release. The tool automatically updates by connecting to PC with the TPM Manager software.

NOTE:

When the valve is removed from the rim, it is necessary to replace it with a NEW  one in good condition because the rubber seal may not fit perfectly in the valve opening later on.
