MOUNTING/DISMOUNTING TOOL📷 1
3 - BEAD BREAKER (KEEP CLEAR OF SENSOR)
 Rotating Tool Tire Changers - Position the wheel on the changer so that the sensor valve stem (1) is located approximately 180° clockwise from the installation end of the mounting/dismounting tool (2) once the tool is mounted for tire installation. Make sure the sensor is clear of the lower bead breaker area (3) to avoid damaging the sensor when the breaker rises. Rotate the tool (2) in a counterclockwise direction to mount the tire. Use this procedure on both the upper and lower tire beads. 6. Adjust air pressure to that listed on Tire Inflation Pressure Label (Placard) provided with vehicle (usually applied to driver's side B-pillar). Make sure original style valve stem cap is securely installed to keep moisture out of sensor.
7.   Install tire and wheel assembly on vehicle. See STANDARD PROCEDURE.
8.   Lower vehicle.
9.   If the vehicle has been stationary for more then 20 minutes, drive the vehicle for a minimum of 10
minutes while maintaining a continuous speed above 15 mph (24 km/h). During this time, the system will
learn the new sensor ID. A new sensor ID can also be programmed directly into the WCM by using a RKE-TPM Analyzer in conjunction with a Scan Tool. Once the new sensor ID has been programmed, the RKE-TPM Analyzer can be used to update the TPMS by activating the sensor.
NOTE: If a sensor cannot be trained, refer to appropriate diagnostic information.
