Clark from F1 motorsport did this a while back. He did this on his 3GS. One of his post, he mentioned putting sensors in a pressurized canister, but everyone ignored that.

Great work for sharing this with everybody.

 

dude, you need to make a "kit" of this somehow and sell it to others...

 

I have no idea wtf that is, but if it fixes TPMS, i hope you show us how to do it too! I might need to know in the future when I plan to change my rims.

 

and this is better than wheelbarrel wheel how????

 

you can hide this canister under your spare tire.

 

Don't try to cross the border with that thing (Canadian at least). Good work, perhaps over-engineered but hey if it works it works.

 

yeah I had it spayed because didn't want a plain white pvc pipe with blue adhesive to be sticking out like a sore thumb

 

Man your reply cracked me up!

 

How about a refillable aerosol spray can? one quick search yielded this item

It says it can pressurize up to 50 even 90 PSI.
All you got to do is find a model that you can stick the sensors in.

I just don't know if the air will leak after an extended amount of time.

 

I only have less than $20 invested in it not including the paint

 

why dont u mount a digital pressure gauge on it ???this way u know when the air is getting low.

 

I tried that on one of my first versions....but had leaking problems....this way seemed to work best

 

How did you mount the sensors in the PVC pipe? Did you just drop them in, tape, glue them so they are secure?

Also, can't you just put all 4 sensors in one PVC pipe instead of having 4 separate pipes?

 

that container has all 4 sensor in it........I went to home depot and bought the industrial velcro and put 3 long strips lengthwise and then put small strips on the sensors themselves so they stuck to the sides......what a pain that was....mainly so it wouldn't rattle

 

HAVE YOU EVER TRIED HITTING THE CAPSLOCK BUTTON ONE MORE TIME BEFORE TYPING?!?!
