G. Lear Snap-In Valve
g. Lear Snap-In ValvesBeginning with 2010 Santa Fe, a Lear TPMS valve does not use a nut to mount to the wheel. These new valves are "snap-in."
The TPMS sensor and snap-in valve are separable by removing the 7mm prevailing torque hex nut. This hex nut should never be reused.
To remove and install the snap-in valve, a standard valve stem puller tool is required.
CAUTION:
When installing a snap-in valve, ensure that the valve bulb is fully seated and resting on the rim.
CAUTION:
Torque the prevailing torque hex nut to 1.2 Nm (10.6 Lb-Inches). Do not overtorque.
