Yes I did it myself. You have to break the tire away from the rim on one side so you can get to the inside.

I took it to my tire shop and he installed it for me. You have to take the tire off the rim. I had a slow leak on another tire which he fixed at the same time and the total bill was $37.00 I paid him cash and didn't ask for a breakdown, but he also had to recalibrate the other sensors to be sure they were reporting in the correct position (right front, left front, etc.). I hope this helps.

I would assume it wouldn't be to hard if you could remove your tire to install it.

maybe put a fresh battery in the sensor clip. if you hold the magnet next to the sensor and move it with the device turned on you should see the wheel icons in the upper left moving. On my tires the magnet that clips to the spoke is about 1/16th of an inch away from the bottom of the sensor when it passes, has to be close.

I tried to program it and could not. I took it to the dealer and they told me it was the wrong part. Amazon took it back, no problem there, but it cost almost $300 to replace one sensor. I don't know if I was scammed or not. Proceed with caution.

You need threads on your rear wheel to put it on. You will need a tool or a local bike shop can help you

I use liners. I take the dark grey rim off, place the liner, then replace the rim. Works great. Liner stays in place.

Here is my video showing how I installed and I explain how to tighten each side a little bit until they are snug. Maybe one side is tighter and its not allowing the other side to sit flush. All I get for noise on mine is a slight whistle while going down the road. I want to find some type of spoiler that can go on the front to get rid of the whistle when I am not hauling anything. You could also take them down one at a time and see which one is making the noise. Good luck and feel free to ask any more questions. http://youtu.be/QZcza0KBh9M

I installed everything but the ride sensor behind the rear seat. Drilled a one inch hole through the floor in the cab corners for sensor wires and air lines. One inch wire covering was fit on the holes to protect the lines and wires. The occasional noise of the compressor running lets me know the system is working.

Just close the sensor with a little piece of tape or just put a drop of black silicon on it. Works !

Check with the dealer but I believe everything from 2013 and newer has a different style of TPMS sensor such that there is no sensor in the wheel

Take the nut off of the tire slip the peg over the axle/bolt then using a rachet with an extension install nut inside of peg

Best way to install is by placing the wheel cover over the wheel and making sure the valve stem goes through the hole. Using a little force, start pushing the cover into the wheel whole holding it steady with the other hand. Once the cover is able to stay on by itself, you can tap the remainder of it down with the palm of your hand, one corner at a time. (Or you can use side of your fist)

I pried it off with a long nose screwdriver and screwed the new one on. http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=gB1SasCNXyY

The battery is just a flat disk inside the cap. You just take the cap off the stem, twist the top of the cap off like you would change a flashlight battery, slide the expired battery out, and slide in a new battery. Twist the cap back on and screw it back on the stem. The sensor does its thing and you are all set. I have had a unit in the past that you cannot replace the battery, as it's one piece. This is the reason I bought the Tire Minder; You only have to replace the battery instead of the entire unit.

Yes, have someone help you to go from tire to tire and let out air until horn beeps the confirmation. I might add you will need a air pump to refill the tires.Local tire companies charge about $40.00 to install and reset the sensor.

I did reset mine but I probably didn't need to. I also covered the sensor with a piece of tape.
