How to Replace the Battery in a Tire Pressure Monitoring Sensor?
1 Answers
Tire pressure monitoring sensors are generally divided into internal sensors and external sensors. Internal sensors have a longer battery life, typically lasting 4 to 6 years, but replacing the battery is more complicated. If the internal tire pressure monitoring sensor runs out of power, it is recommended to replace the entire sensor module directly. External sensors, on the other hand, have a battery life of only 1 to 3 years, but they are easier to disassemble, and replacing the battery is more convenient and quick, allowing for DIY operation. To replace the battery, first remove the tire and take out the depleted tire pressure monitoring sensor. Open the sensor, and you will find an internal structure consisting of an integrated circuit board and a button battery. Remove the old battery and solder the new one in place, ensuring it is secure and not loose. Finally, reinstall the tire pressure monitoring sensor back into the tire. After reinstalling the sensor, it needs to be recalibrated. Simply driving the car will allow the sensor to automatically detect and match. Generally, cars use tire pressure monitoring sensors to check whether the tire pressure is within the acceptable range and whether there is any air leakage. When the car is in motion, the sensors installed in each tire transmit data such as tire pressure and temperature wirelessly to a central receiver. The receiver then analyzes this data and displays warnings on the alarm display if necessary.
