Chrysler 2005 Crossfire SRT6 Service Manual page 3538

22 - 52 TIRES/WHEELS - SERVICE INFORMATION
Note: The valve stem used on this vehicle is made of aluminum and the core is nickel plated brass. The
original valve stem core must be reinstalled and not substituted for a valve stem core made of a different
material. This is required to prevent corrosion in the valve stem caused by the different metals.
1. Remove the tire/wheel from the vehicle.
2. Remove the balancing weights from the wheel (1).
3. Remove the cap from the valve stem (2).
4. Using the appropriate tool, remove the core (4)
from the valve stem (2).
5. Allow the tire fully deflate.
CAUTION: The pressure transmitter must be
removed from the wheel and dropped into the tire
prior to breaking the bead and dismounting the
tire. Failure to do this will greatly increase the risk
of damaging the transmitter when servicing the
tire.
6. Remove the nut (1) mounting the valve stem (4) of
the pressure sensor/transmitter to the wheel (2).
Drop sensor/transmitter into the tire (3).
CAUTION: When breaking the top and bottom
bead of the tire off the wheel, care must be used
so the bead breaking mechanism on the tire
changer does not damage the wheel. This includes
the surface of the wheel flange on the inside of
the wheel.
7. Using the tire changer manufacturer's procedure,
first break down the upper bead of the tire. Then
break down the bottom bead of the tire.
CAUTION: When dismounting the upper tire bead from the wheel, the proper procedure must be used. Not
using the proper procedure will result in damage to the wheel and tire.
