- Here's how you can remove your TPMS units at home. If you go in to a tire shop they might charge up to $20 a wheel to pull them and refill them with air. Here you can see what it takes to do it at home. I used an inexpensive tool for pulling a new valve stem into place. See below for a link to purchase one for yourself.

I wasn't even interested in this topic but I saw the backyard engineering and had to see if this worked. Nice Job!
wow, I just did it. I've never broken down a tire so easy. I sprayed the bead down with soap water and used the 2x4 and 2x6 just like you did. Thanks!! saved me lots of work.
Master Tech here!!!! I just gotta say this is genius !!!! New techs nowadays don’t do this anymore. Love it!!
This is the safest and fastest way to do it at home, better than the jack method. Changed my sensors quickly. Thanks
Proper oldy time Can-Do in action. Well thought out and executed, mate. Thanks !
I follow up your instructions and it was so easy to replace the bad TPMS Thank you so much
Thank you for sharing! No nonsense instructions and demonstration. Subscribed! A fellow Gx470 owner and DIYer.
Dude, you made that seem so easy. Thanks for the video, gave me more confidence to try on my own
Did this today and it all worked out. Reset the bead and added air using the $39 Harbor Freight Pittsburg Portable Air Inflator for those that don’t have a compressor. Many, many thanks!
Do u have to program them??
Yes
What an awesome video very very informative, your to cool dude thank you very much I've been breaking tires down the old hard way like my grandfather did using a bumper jack, today there's no bumper Jack's for plastic bumpers right thanks again
you were killing me with your other hand so close to the bead when you were filling it back up with air. lol Please make sure you keep your hands clear of that area when setting the bead!
I put the tire down underneath the back of my trailer hitch on my truck and use a scissor jack between the tire and my trailer hitch to get the tire off the bead...
That was pretty slick! You have a lot of faith in the strength of your siding lol
Now that was done with confidence. You made it look easy. Thanks for making this routine available to us.
Clark did you try this your self ?
@@m.kastro591 Thanks for asking, but actually, I merely used another TH-cam video to learn how to disable the wires under the dash.
I really don't need the alert system because I check my tires often. But this looks doable even 2 years later.
@@clarkeugene5727 thats what i need to know
I legit want to try this. I got some extra rims and tires, may have to try it one nice day. Looks fun.
Thank you! this technique is very helpful to my situation
WOW. Thank you for your time for show all the steps. Perfect
Thank you for putting this video together, really useful!
Now you’re 634 dude thanks for the video ,I know about subs it’s not fair.good luck you’re almost there
About the coolest sub note I've see. Thanks.
Appreciate the video, can’t wait to do this on my car! 👍
Well done you made that look so easy 🤓🇬🇧🤓
I can't believe you broke that bead with wood that way. I remember helping my Dad and we used a heavy car to gently drive onto the tire.
in olden days the tires were narrow and the side walls were wider, 85, 75. Nowadays with small numbers, 55, 60, it is more tricky.
Thanks good video. How do you programming it
Damn buddy. You are good 👍 thanks for the tips
Great work - Thanks for sharing.
very efficient technique! Thank you
Genius 👍🏼
Great video assuming your sensor is mounted on a steel stem with a nut that can be easily removed...the rubber stem mounted sensors are slightly more difficult and annoying and can't be reused from what I understand requiring a $10+ rebuild kit per wheel.
Nice and easy to do thank you
That looks easiest enough to do.... Not sure why but on my 2008 Kia Rondo my 'TPMS' light has been acting up even though the tire pressure is fine. Looks like I might need to replace these monitors.. Thanks for the video..
@SORENEAGLE What size Valve stem was the new one that you put in??
I'm trying to swap out TPMS for traditional valve stem on my 2022 RAV4 and I'm trying to figure out the size needed. Thanks in advance!!
You are a superman , thanks bro .
Nicely done! Thanks!
If its a programmable TPMS you now have the valve in, how are you going to programme it?
Excellent video. Thank you.
I talke to the guy at Walmart, said he'd beak the bead for free for me. can't beat that.
Now if there was a way to disable the tire pressure warning light on the dash, this would be perfect
Thank you so much! Great video man!
will the light for the sending unit come on after putting the reg. valve cor on the tires???? and can the sending unit be turned off.....
Well done 👍,,,
Did you put in a non-TPMS valve stem? If so, won't the computer sense this and the low air pressure warning light always be on? Doesn't that TPMS have to be in there if it was in from the factory?
no way it can be that easy my tire shop said i had to go buy new ones and each one was like 80$ and if they tried to remove them they would break
100% of the time i just saw you remove it with such ease im so mad
they do love the scam
Get errr done 🇺🇸
Good job 👍 😊
if there is no tpms sensor on the tire will a tire stem like this rotate around when trying to twist the cap off? I know i have a tpms sensor issue and only 1 of my tires stems will twist around in circles and Im wondering if that is why, there is no leaking or anything; Im just curious bc I bought the car used and I use an alternate way or monitoring the pressure in the tires from something I bought off amazon but if its only 1 that needs to be replace I would rather do that lol
Do you have to rebalance the tire if you do it this way?
Thank you.
Wow , great video thanks
Good info. Thank you
Impressive!
Hey I took my car for new set of tires at the shop. After tire pressure light came on. Tried to reset it by holding button and hear two horn sound. After that still no numbers on the four wheel graphic. Did the shop took out the sensor?
Question? You unscrewed the first one how was the replacement different?
Pretty sure the replacement was just a plain valve stem. He was removing the TPMS sensor altogether.
is there anything special to inflate tire. can i just go to any gas station and fill up with air to reseal the bead?
Well done...
Doing this way, does that tire need to be balanced again?
Thanks for the tutorial. I’m curious what’s the battery type used inside the tpms?
I don't know the battery type but I don't think they're meant to be changed.
@@SORENEAGLE Gotcha, thank you.
the soap and water made a magic. it broke the seal easily. i used my towing bar of the car for support. i tied the 4x4 beam with a rope, and this way the 4x4 was always tight against the pivoting point. i dropped my old sensor inside. extraction: using a short piece of a garden hose attached to a strong shop vacuum cleaner. how do you inflate it, if the rubber tire does not touch the metal rim. all the air goes out easily. yes i know the trick with the starter fluid and i am not going there.
I have e39 bmw, can I install TPMS on it? It will working and show msg on screen?
Nice! Tankx alot...
How you new it was that sensor?
If your just going to put a regular valve stem back in why not just leave the old stem sensor in or install new sensors for about 40 bucks for all 4?
Switching wheels and don’t want to buy new TPMS sensors
Smart
All tires and rims are not the same.
I just broke beads and there is no way this would have worked on my tires. 265/70R15.
I used a scissor jack under a truck frame and it was difficult.
Local tire shop wants $65 just for one tpms sensor that I can buy on amazon for under $15. I hate being hosed.
same here
So will it turn the light off
If I’m getting the tps service light, and one tire is getting a blank reading on the dash would this be the easiest fix or does the system need to be recalibrated? This looks easiest I just don’t want to swap it out and still be getting this stupid ass notification all the time
How come all the other videos on TH-cam make it look soooooooo time consuming and complicated?? Thank you!
Have you tried that trick on BMW’s run flat tyres? No chance
How do you know which sensor is faulty?
Did I miss you putting the nut on the new valve stem?
It looked like a rubber "pull into place" type. Sorry if you figured that out already in the last five months.
so you didn't put in a new TPMS... just a valve stem?
How do you find out witch one has a problem? Or should I just change them all ? Thank you
The sensor that won't register on your dash
I want to see how to get the damn light off video,. No one, no where is there a video of that,. It's frkn blinking,. Any suggestions?
gooooooog man toooooop
but how doyou reprogram new tpms if batteries are bad?
I guess it's hard to do this with low profile tire...
nothing like having another warning light on 😅
what about the light
only works if you have a fat tire, you need a nice tool for hard low profile tires
wouldn't removing the TPMS sensor cause the tire light to go on, on the dash board?
Yes, but you can add or program the new tpms sensor.
I don't get the concept here. Was the TPMS leaking? If not then why not leave it alone if you're just going to replace the TPSM with a ordinary valve stem. The light on your dash wont go out and if your state has inspections it won't pass.
I don't know about his reasons, but I need to do this with my car's old set of stock rims so I can install the sensors on my new ones.
@@SafetyThirdProps did you try it, I need to do same thing
my local tire shop put mine in for $50, in about 20 min.
Now how to calibrate the sensors?..........
Tire Ninja!
Hi thanks for the video. Question, you took the original sensor off with a ratchet, but you didnt put the new one back on with a ratchet, im just curious why?
That's okay. I'll pay shop
😂I find this funny why! Why did you take it out!? Because light was on? Now it will permanently be on so solved nothing… waste of time and no tire shop will do this because it’s a safety issue. But more power to ya!
Do you need to balance the tire?
No
The inside bead is still in place, so re-balancing is not needed.
can the TPMS battery be replaced, instead of buying a whole TPMS unit?
My understanding is that they are not serviceable. I've heard of others trying but I don't know if they have been successful.
There are plenty of videos of people changing batteries in the TPMS wheel sensors
great
Ah yes, the old trim on the house trick
Cool 😎👍
Do we REALLY need these damn things on our cars ? Not to mention half the other sensors that go off for no reason just because the weather changed!
Great Video
Thanx
5 ft/lb to tighten the nut, is it the same for all TPMS the 5 ft/lb? And if you don't have tq wrench, this guy said tighten the nut to snug then turn it 1/2 more turn, is that right.
5lbs too much...most are less than 40 in/lbs
Good video but you need a tpms scan tool scan and set sensors you cant just install them and leave them be
He only removed the sensor and replaced it with a standard valve stem.
What do you mean by scan tool and set sensors? Tks
@@andresarme tpms sensors must be programmed to the car for it to read them. If you simply install a sensor the car will not read it. There is a special scan tool to do it.
Thanks, I had got lost because, at least for my car, the sensors can be set by just removing or pulling air to the tires and a key combination on the dash. Anyway I feel the important on the video is how to remove the sensors.
So, if I don't have scan tool, there is no other way to program, or rest the new sensor?
sin tanto pedo gran video , simple easy smart super smart great video , tks for share....
That stupid light is a pain in the ass. Thanks! Everything the government says you HAVE to do? I UNDO.
Ok but the warning light is still on.
Wouldn't this affect your balance too?
Same thing I was wondering. Maybe since it gets remounted in the same position it might be okay?
it will definitely affect the balance, you should get your wheels rebalanced after this procedure
@@Winlith no it will not affect the balance...the tire was never rotated on the rim
@@Winlith
Why do you think it will affect balance? He never broke the bead on the back side of the rim. So that means the tire is in the same location.
@@splash5974 The TPMS sensor's weight is not the same as the valve's weight, so you should probably check the balance after the replacement. If the weight difference is not that big, then it should be fine. Still better safe than sorry.
But how do you determine which sensor is bad?
When system doesn't show a number or the number reads way off, your sensor is bad.
There are a lot of complaints in the comments about the video maker not teaching people stuff they already know. This video is about removing a TPMS sensor, nothing else.
