Tire Pressure Sensor/Transmitter: Installation

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Chrysler 300M and 2002 Chrysler 300M. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE: When installing the tire pressure sensor/transmitter, inspect the sealing "O" ring at the bottom of the valve stem for any sign of damage or deterioration. Replace "O" ring, if necessary.

Install the tire pressure sensor/transmitter on the wheel.
Tighten the tire pressure sensor/transmitter mounting nut. When tightening the sensor/transmitter nut, hold the transmitter so it does not rotate. If the sensor/transmitter rotates so the top edge is not level with the wheel, damage to the transmitter will occur when mounting the tire. See Figure . If the top edge of the transmitter is not level with the wheel, it can be rotated into position by lightly tapping it with your hand.
CAUTION: When mounting the upper bead of the extended mobility tire, the proper procedure must be used. Not using the proper procedure will result in damage to the wheel and tire.
Mount the upper bead of the tire on the wheel.
Install the original or an OEM replacement valve stem cap on the valve stem.
Using a soap solution, check that no air leak is present where the valve stem mounts to the wheel.
Balance the tire/wheel assembly using the correct procedure for using wheel flange mount and stick-on wheel weights.
Install the tire/wheel on the vehicle.
Program the identification code for the new tire pressure sensor/transmitter into the TPM module. See PROGRAMMING .
Verify that the TPM module has been programmed with the identification code from the new tire pressure sensor/transmitter See TIRE PRESSURE SYSTEM TEST under SYSTEM TESTS. If the identification code and tire pressure thresholds from the new tire pressure transmitter are present in the receiver's memory, the new tire pressure transmitter has been correctly programmed to the receiver.
