APPLICATION GUIDE

HOW TO REPLACE THE SELECT SENSOR VALVE STEELMAN® Select Sensors are designed to work with either a rubber snap-in valve stem or a metal clamp-in valve stem (aluminum and chrome are available). This enables the installer to match the valve stem type on the TPMS equipped vehicle. The 97353 snap-in valve stem is connected to the sensor using a 7mm nut. The 97354 aluminum clamp-in valve stem and 97336 chrome clamp-in valve stem is connected to the sensor using a T10 torque screw. To remove or install a valve from the STEELMAN® Select Sensor use the 96198 Torque Tool. The torque tool is preset to 12-in-lbs. (1.4 Nm).

• When removing or installing a valve stem - grip the valve stem and body. Use the 96198 Torque Tool with the T10 hex bit or 7mm socket. • When installing a new valve, make sure the valve is properly seated in this sensor body. Tighten the T10 screw or 7mm lock nut until you hear a “click” indicating the proper torque has been achieved.

APPLICATION GUIDE

1. From the Main Menu select “Program Blank Sensor” and press enter.

2. From the Vehicle Selection menu select “Make” and press enter.

4. From the vehicle Model menu select the Year and press enter.

5. From the Program Blank Sensor menu select “STEELMAN Select” op on and press enter.

6. From the STEELMAN Select menu select “Create New Sensor” and press enter.

7. Posi on STEELMAN Select Sensor with the valve stem pointed towards the VT55 antenna and hold in place. Press “Enter”.

8. VT55 will prompt the correct STEELMAN Select Sensor (315 or 433 MHz). Press the “Write” or Test bu on.

9. The VT55 will con rm the STEELMAN Select Sensor programming success.

3. From the Make menu select the vehicle “Model” and press enter.

NOTE: Program the STEELMAN® Select Sensor away from other TPMS sensors and other RF interference. NOTE: After a new sensor is installed in the vehicle, always perform a vehicle relearn to ensure the TPMS system is operating and communicating properly, and clearing out previous sensor fault codes.

STEELMAN VAVLE STEM PRESSURE AND SPEED RATING STEELMAN® Select Sensor part numbers 97356 and 97358 are supplied with a rubber snap-in valve (part number 97353). The rubber snap-in valve stems are designed for use 130 MPH (209 km/h) max speed. higher than 130 MPH speed rating, the valve stem MUST be changed to the aluminum or chrome metal clamp-in valve stem (part numbers: aluminum 97354, Chrome 97336). For a question on a TPMS application, please call Technical Support at (800) 255-7011.

· 97356 and 97358 Select Sensors w/snap-in · Part Number: 97353 Rubber snap-in valve stem · · Max speed rating 130MPH (18 5KPH)

Step 1 - Remove rubber valve stem

Step 2 – Keep transmitter

TECH TIP: 97356 & 97358 SENSORS HAVE A MAXIMUM PRESSURE READING OUTPUT OF 102 PSI

HUF (BERU) TPMS VAVLE STEM SERVICE KIT TECH BULLETIN Huf (Beru) utilizes a Generation I and Generation II design of replaceable valve stems with their TPMS sensors. These can be found on OEM vehicles such as Audi, Bentley, BMW, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Maserati, Mini, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, Rolls Royce and Volkswagen. These valve stems are color coded at the base of the stem denoting different dimensions (see table below). NOTE: Gen I and Gen II valve stems utilize a different thread pitch, therefore the service repair kits use different components and cannot be interchanged. Only use the 96207 service kit with the Gen I valve stems, and the 96210 with the Gen II valve stems. The below details the differences in the valve stems and the service kits.
