Kia Carens: Tire Pressure Monitoring System / TPMS Sensor Repair procedures
Handle the sensor with care.
|
1. |
Remove the tire.
(Refer to Tire/Wheels - "Tire")
|
2. |
Remove the valve nut.

The valve nut should not be re-used.
|
|
3. |
Discard the valve assembly.
|
Sensor Fit
• |
Handle the sensor with care.
|
• |
Avoid lubricant contact.
|
• |
Ensure that the wheel to be fitted is designed for sensor mount.
There should normally be a mark to indicate this.
|
• |
Ensure that the valve hole and mating face of the wheel are
clean.
|
|
1. |
Slide the sensor-valve unit through the valve hole of the rim. Hold
the sensor against the rim and the rubber grommet against the sealing
surface.
|
2. |
Insert the nut over the valve stem and then tighten the nut.

|
3. |
Continue to tightening the nut until contact with the rim and then tighten
to 2.4 ~ 3.0Nm.

–
|
Tighten slowly with quarter turn steps until the final
torque is reached.
|
–
|
Do not exceed allowed torque.
|
–
|
Do not use electric or pneumatic tools.
|
|
|
4. |
Check that the sensor is firmly attached to the rim.
Risk of damage during the tire installation/ removal if the
sensor is not firmly attached to the rim.
|
|
5. |
Carry out inflation / pressure correction and then fit valve cap.
|
6. |
Install the tire. (Refer to "Tire Installation")
|
7. |
In the case of TPMS sensor failure, TPMS sensor needs learning. Faulty
sensor is replaced new units, conduct learning of TPMS sensors.
|
Diagnosis procedure by using
diagnostic device |
As manual for diagnosis methods by using diagnosis device, the main contents
are as follows:
1. |
Connect self-diagnosis connector(16pins) located in the lower of driver
side crash pad to self-diagnosis device, and then turn the self-diagnosis
device after key is ON.
|
2. |
Select the "vehicle model" and "TPMS" on GDS vehicle selection screen,
then select OK.
