• Q: How to service the TPMS Sensor and Transmitter on 2007 Toyota Avalon?

  A: The service process for the Tire Pressure Warning Valve and Transmitter begins by removing front and rear wheels as well as the Grand Spare Tire if present. The service procedure starts with releasing tire air through valve core removal followed by separating the washer-nut from the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter to let it fall inside the tire. You should carefully utilize a shoe on the tire remover to detach the bead without harming the valve and transmitter while you pull out the upper bead followed by removing the valve and transmitter from the tire before checking for grommet damage. Perform valve and transmitter installation by inserting them through the inside rim hole toward the printed surface while checking for missing debris. Tighten the washer and nut until the torque reaches 4.0 N m (41 kgf cm, 35 in. lbf) but stop before over-tightening and inspect that the area remains free of contaminants like oil and water. Mount the wheel disc on the machine controller followed by lower bead installation where you must correctly position the valve and transmitter to prevent interference before you install the upper bead while avoiding clamping. Prior to tire inflation check for soapy water leaks and tighten the valve nut according to specified torque then recheck for leaks. The installation of front wheels and rear wheels should be performed using 103 N m (1,050 kgf cm, 76 ft. lbf) torque with the addition of the Grand Spare Tire if necessary. Examine the tire then proceed to record the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter ID before inspecting the tire pressure warning system process. When disposing the battery requires removal from the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter through back cover pry-off using a screwdriver followed by terminal cutting which allows proper lithium battery disposal.
