TPMS Argh..

[Goon]

So, Newport, RI is going through heavy construction and ended up getting a 3/4" pyramid/arrowhead rock in my right passenger. that pierce through the rubber.

I took it to get it examined and brought new stocks. Can't change all four tires at the moment, but the question is about the TPMS.

Is it even possible for a technician to fix the valve behind the steam is leaking supposedly after the addition of lubricants to view the bubbling and fizzing.

Because unscrewing the stem would rotate the TPMS sensor and damage/break it? Is there an alternative to fixing this?

Somehow, they did put on new plastic caps and I couldn't hear the valve leak at all! But maybe it'll change tomorrow morning when it becomes partially deflated...

Any help would be grateful!

Im a little lost in what the issue is...

You bought a new tire, got it...

The TPMS valve is leaking? You can put a new valve on the TPMS i believe, but if it breaks, you can buy a replacement on ebay for cheap and have it synched.

So that yellow part stuck onto the stem/valve won't break when the technician is in the process of twisting it out to get to replace the gasket?

well... that depends on the tech working with you. discount tire broke mine when replacing a tire
