Frequently Asked Questions

Does this TPMS sensor require programming for my 1997-2000 Corvette?

No programming required. This is a pre-programmed direct replacement sensor with exact OE specifications that works immediately after proper installation and vehicle relearn procedure. The sensor uses factory frequency and positioning to communicate seamlessly with your Corvette's TPMS system automatically.

What's the difference between this Schrader sensor and universal TPMS sensors?

This Schrader 29178 provides exact OE fitment with pre-programmed functionality and durable aluminum construction, while universal sensors require additional programming steps and may not match original specifications perfectly. OE sensors typically offer significantly better longevity and reliability compared to aftermarket alternatives.

Can I install this TPMS sensor myself?

Installation requires tire mounting equipment, proper torque wrench, and TPMS relearn tools for the precise 35.4 in-lbs nut specification and 3.5 in-lbs valve core torque. Professional installation strongly recommended unless you have complete tire service equipment and extensive experience with TPMS systems.

How long does a Schrader TPMS sensor typically last?

Schrader TPMS sensors typically last 7-10 years depending on driving conditions and environmental exposure. Battery life, road salt exposure, and temperature extremes affect overall longevity in tire pressure monitoring systems. Signs of sensor failure include intermittent readings or dashboard warning lights.

Will this sensor work with aftermarket wheels on my Corvette?

Yes, as long as your aftermarket wheels accommodate clamp-in TPMS sensors with proper valve stem clearance and mounting depth. Verify wheel compatibility before installation since some lightweight or racing wheels may have insufficient clearance for the sensor body and mounting hardware.
