Question
What maintenance extends TPMS sensor lifespan?
Answer
Regular inspection, avoiding harmful sealants, proper valve stem torque, and storing sensors in cool/dry areas.
Explain
Inspect sensors yearly for corrosion; use only TPMS-safe sealants; torque valve stems to 4-6 Nm (not over-tighten); store spare sensors at 15-25°C (avoid extreme heat). CHEPQ sensor kits include maintenance checklists to guide technicians.
