Title: How do you remove the tire pressure sensor from the rim.

Just would like to know how it comes out, so I can change the battery.

Undo the nut and it falls off.

Yeah, it is like heart bypass surgery: just sew the new vein in place!

Jim is right though, take off the nut and the sensor falls out. That is after the wheel is taken of the bike and the tire is taken off (or 1/2 way off) the wheel.

I change mine when i'm ready to change my tire. I remove the rim from the bike and use my sharpest knife to cut out a piece of rubber 3" x 6" above the valve stem. I remove the sensor and change the battery before taking the rim in for the new tire install. I plan on repeating this every.....3 or 4 yrs? mat
