Toyota RAV4 (XA40) 2013-2018 Service Manual: Tire pressure warning valve and transmitter
Components

Removal
- Remove front tire
- Remove rear tire
- Remove tire pressure warning valve subassembly
- Remove the valve core and cap, and release air
from the tire.
- After ensuring that air is sufficiently released,
remove the nut and washer that are used to fix the
tire pressure warning valve and drop the valve
sensor inside the tire.
Hint:
Keep the removed cap, valve core, nut and washer.

- After dropping the tire pressure warning valve into
the tire, disengage the tire bead using the shoe of
the tire remover.
Notice:
Be careful not to damage the tire pressure
warning valve because of interference between
the sensor and tire bead.
- Remove the bead on the upper side.
- Take out the sensor from the tire and remove the
bead on the lower side.
- Remove the inner grommet from the tire pressure
warning valve.
Hint:
Check that there are no cracks or damage on the
grommet. If necessary, replace the grommet, the
washer and the nut.
Installation
- Install tire pressure warning valve subassembly

- Insert the tire pressure warning valve into the valve
installation hole. Insert it from the inside of the rim
so that the print surface can be seen.
Notice:
- Check that there is no visible deformation,
damage or other abnormalities on the
transmitter.
- Check that there is no foreign matter on the
inner grommet and around the rim hole.
- If the tire pressure warning valve is installed
in the reverse direction, it may be damaged or
fail to transmit signals when the vehicle is
driven at high speeds.
- Install the washer on the tire pressure warning valve
from the rim side and tighten it with the nut.
Torque: 4.0 N*m (41 kgf*cm, 35 in.*Lbf)
Notice:
- Make sure that there is no foreign matter on
the washer and nut.
- If the tire and tire pressure warning valve
have been removed, check that there is no
damage or cuts visible, and no foreign matter,
such as mud, dirt or sand attached to the
grommet. Replace the grommet with a new
one if any of the defects mentioned above are
found.
- Make sure that there is no oil, water or
lubricant around the rim hole, tire pressure
warning valve, washer and nut. Failing to do
so may result in improper installation.
- After the tire is inflated, the valve nut may be loose.
Retighten the nut to the specified torque and then
check for air leaks with soapy water.
Torque: 4.0 N*m (41 kgf*cm, 35 in.*Lbf)
- Set the wheel disc to the mounting machine and
install the lower tire bead. Position the main body of
the valve sensor in the shaded area shown in the
illustration.
Notice:
If the valve sensor is positioned outside this
area, it will interfere with the tire bead and may
be damaged.
- Install the upper bead.

Notice:
- Make sure that the tire bead and tool do not
interfere with the main body of the sensor
and that the sensor is not clamped by the
bead.
- Check that there is no water or other liquid
around the tire pressure warning valve.
- Install front tire
torque: 103 n*m (1,050 kgf*cm, 76 ft.*Lbf)
- Install rear tire
torque: 103 n*m (1,050 kgf*cm, 76 ft.*Lbf)
- Register transmitter id
Hint:
If the tire pressure warning ecu is replaced with a new
one or with an ecu from another vehicle, register the
transmitter id codes.
- Inspect tire pressure warning system
Disposal
- Dispose of tire pressure warning valve sub-assembly
Hint:
The tire pressure warning valve is powered by a lithium
battery. When disposing of the tire pressure sensor,
remove the battery and dispose of it properly.

- Use the tip of a screwdriver to pry off the back
cover.

resin are exposed. While taking out the battery, cut
the 2 terminals that connect the battery and the
base board.
