Removal Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Suzuki XL7. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Raise the vehicle on a suitable support. Refer to LIFTING AND JACKING THE VEHICLE .
  2. Remove the tire/wheel assembly from the vehicle. Refer to REMOVAL PROCEDURE .
    NOTE: Before the tire is removed from the wheel, note the following items to avoid tire pressure sensor damage upon tire dismounting.
    • Place the sensor's cap and valve on a dry clean surface after removal. The cap is aluminum and the valve is nickel plated to prevent corrosion and are not to be substituted with a cap or valve made of any other material.
    • When separating the tire bead from the wheel, position the bead breaking fixture 90 degrees from the valve stem.
    • Position the mounting/dismounting head so the tire iron, or pry bar can be inserted slightly clockwise of the sensor body when prying the tire bead up and over the mounting/dismounting head.
    • Using the tire machine, rotate the tire/wheel assembly clockwise when transferring the tire bead to the out side of the wheel rim.
    • Repeat items for inner bead.
  3. Remove the tire from the wheel. Refer to TIRE MOUNTING AND DISMOUNTING .
