Question
How do you clean TPMS sensor pressure ports?
Answer
Use a 0.5mm wire (provided in CHEPQ kits) to clear debris—avoid sharp tools that damage the port.
Explain
Pressure ports clog with dirt or sealant; a soft wire removes blockages without scratching the MEMS transducer. CHEPQ recommends monthly port checks for fleet vehicles.
