TPS Questions..I need some help
I purchased a set of new Tire Pressure Sensors for my '99 FRC. I am replacing the Chrome rims with Y2K painted versions along with new tires and these pressure sensors. They came with O rings but no washers or nuts. I need to see a parts breakdown to determine if there are 2 O rings per sensor or just one. The O rings are already installed, do they go inside the wheel, then the wheel, washer and nut? Or is there a second O ring mounted outside the wheel then the washer and nut?
A breakdown photo would be great but I cannot find one.
thanks in advance

One o-ring per sensor. Install the o-ring over the stem, slide the TPM sensor through the hole and install the nut on the outside. Torque to proper value. Use care, the nuts are aluminum.
BTW, TPS is Throttle Position Sensor.

Thanks LoneStarFRC, Is there a separate Washer or is that what GM calls the O ring?
I found 2 parts numbers. 10268439 for the nuts and 10268439 for the washer. Do those3 numbers sound right?
