Tire pressure sensors Hyundai Tucson
Content
Normal operation of the car is possible only with optimal tire inflation. Pressure deviation up or down significantly affects the dynamic performance, fuel consumption and handling.
Therefore, Hyundai Tucson uses special sensors. They check tire pressure. When it deviates beyond the allowable rate, the corresponding indicator lights up. As a result, the car owner learns in a timely manner about the need to pay attention to the wheels, which prevents many negative consequences.
Installing the tire pressure sensor
Tire pressure sensors are installed according to the step-by-step instructions below.
- Secure the vehicle to prevent unintentional movement.
- Raise the machine on the side where the pressure sensor will be installed.
- Remove the wheel from the vehicle.
- Remove the wheel.
- Remove the tire from the rim.
- Remove the installed valve used to inflate the wheel. If you have an old tire pressure sensor, it must be removed.
- Partially disassemble the new tire pressure sensor in preparation for installation.
- Insert the new sensor into the mounting hole.
- Tighten your bra.
- Put the tire on the rim.
- Inflate the wheel.
- Check for air leaks at the sensor installation site. If there is, tighten the valve. Do not apply excessive force as there is a high risk of damage to the sensor.
- Install the wheel to the vehicle.
- Inflate tires to nominal value.
- Drive at a speed of more than 50 km/h for a distance of 15 to 30 km. If the “Check TPMS” error does not appear on the on-board computer screen and tire pressure is visible, then the installation of the sensors was successful.
Pressure sensor test
If the error “Check TPMS” appears on the on-board computer screen, then you need to inspect the wheels for damage. In some cases, the problem may disappear on its own. However, if an error occurs, it is important to check the tire pressure sensors and their connection to the on-board computer.
Visual inspection of the sensors reveals their mechanical damage. In this case, it is rarely possible to restore the counter and it must be replaced.
To test the operation of the tire pressure sensors on the Hyundai Tussan, it is necessary to partially deflate the wheel. After a short period of time, the system should give a message stating that a pressure drop has been detected.
Cost and number for tire pressure sensors for Hyundai Tucson
Hyundai Tussan vehicles use original tire pressure sensors with part number 52933 C1100. Its cost ranges from 2000 to 6000 rubles. Also in retail there are analogues. Many of them are not inferior in quality and characteristics to the original. The best third-party alternatives are presented in the table below.
Table - Hyundai Tucson tire pressure sensors
| The company | Catalog number | Estimated cost, rub |
|---|---|---|
| Mobiletron | TH-S152 | 2000-3000 |
| It was | 565014 | 1700-4000 |
| Mobis | 52933-C8000 | 1650-2800 |
Required actions if the tire pressure sensor lights up
If the tire pressure warning light comes on, this does not always indicate a problem. Periodically, the sensors may falsely trigger due to temperature, driving style, and other external factors. Despite this, it is forbidden to ignore the signal.
First of all, it is important to inspect the wheels for punctures and other damage. If the tires are in good condition, check the pressure with a pressure gauge. If necessary, it can be brought back to normal with a pump. The message and display should then disappear when the vehicle has traveled between 5 and 15 km.
