  Q: How to Change a Snap-In Style TPMS Sensor on Cadillac DTS?

  A:

  To replace the tire pressure indicator sensor (Snap In Style), lift up the vehicle on a suitable support, first. First, pull the vehicle lug nuts with the car jack to raise the vehicle, loosen the lug nuts, and finish removing the nuts afterward. Alway replace the damaged prong with a new one type of schadder(R) tire pressure monitor and use a new torx screw. Pull out the driver-like torx screw located on the tire pressure sensor and pull it straight off from the tire pressure valve stem carefully without scratching or damaging the clear aluminum on the wheels. Afterward, pull the tire pressure valve stem out of the rim. When installing, make sure the flat of valve lines up with the flats of snap in enclosure do not forget that tpm valves and torx screws are one time use. Mount the tire pressure sensor to the valve stem and replace the new torx screw, screwing it down to 1.3 N.m (11.5 lb in). Use a government-approved tire mounting lubricant while not using silicon or corrosion base compounds. Check the valve is functioning properly, press the valve stem so that it moves parallel to hole of rim paste the rubber piece with tire soap let it dry for supper. Please note that Snap Fit tpm sensors were on the off state when they were shipped, but will leave this state as soon as the tire is inflated, so they can program the vehicle as they normally did. Lastly, mount the tire to rim and install the tire/wheel assembly to the vehicle, bring up the vehicle, learn how to read the tire pressure sensors.

  Q: How to replace the TPMS Sensor on Cadillac DTS?

  A:

  The Tire Pressure Sensor replacement process begins with a suitable vehicle support while removing the tire/wheel assembly from the vehicle. Placing both sensor components on a clean surface prior to removing the tire from the wheel is essential for protection against corrosion. These components must be aluminum capping and nickel-plated valves. Before prying the tire bead from the wheel, keep the bead breaking fixture 90 degrees from the valve stem and gently insert the tire iron or pry bar clockwise ahead of the sensor body to pry the tire bead over the mounting/dismounting head. Run the wheel assembly on the tire machine while rotating it clockwise to move the tire bead towards the wheel rim exterior then do the same procedure for the inner bead prior to tire removal. Purge tire sealant from entire wheel-tire interface then extract the tire pressure sensor nut along with its sensor. Clean the grommet sealing area of dirt before putting the sensor into the wheel hole with the air flow facing away from the wheel. Install the sensor nut at 7 Nm torque (62 inch lbs.) while aligning the sensor body parallel to the inside wheel and tightening it into place. Proper tire reinstallation requires users to position the mounting/dismounting head 180 degrees from the valve stem and the bead transition area 45 degrees counterclockwise of the valve stem until the tire bead is successfully transferred to the wheel rim's inside surface before repeating the procedure for installing the tire on the wheel. When purchasing a service replacement tire pressure sensor it is delivered in the OFF operating mode but it needs to be driven at speeds higher than 32 km/h (20 mph) for at least 10 seconds to activate the sensor's roll switch closure. To complete the procedure you must first mount the new wheels and tires onto the vehicle before letting the vehicle settle to ground level to begin learning the sensors' tire pressure data.
