Default Tire Pressure Sensor Battery Replacement Video

I am considering making a DVD video explaining, in detail, how to replace the batteries in 97 - 2000 Tire Pressure Sensors for all you "Do It Yourself" types. It will show you how to extract the battery without damaging the circuit board, replace the battery and reseal the sensor. This video can save you a lot of money.
Please drop me an email or PM me if your interested..... Thanks

Would be intested for our 2000, esp when we need to replace ours (presume within a couple of years)...

I have a 99 with original sensors and I know the day is coming soon to have to replace them. I would greatly appreciate a video or a good write up on a way to replace just the battery.

Thanks, I would like to see that. I bought new ones but I would still like to be able to rebuild the originals.

Interesting that your thread on C5 General has been locked but it continues on here, only because you have not revealed this is a 'FOR PROFIT" venture -

I think you wanted $25 for the DVD, which you say "just covers cost".

UH-- what is missing here?

.50 cents (DVD) + .50 (padded envelope) + postage (generously lets say 3 bucks) + your 'time' (free) = $4 bucks TOPS.

$25 - your so-called "cost"
- 4 - actual / tangible "cost"
______

$21 unaccounted for non-described 'actual costs'. In order to be non-profit, you can't charge for your time.... don't know why you think you should.


I'll think I'll start charging an 'access fee' for all the videos I've posted over several years here using a true owned domain name, not some freebie site. My bankdwidth DOES cost me and it keeps stats of viewers and bandwidth used, so I'll just send each a bill for viewers access.....

Become a vendor if your DVD is that good....

Considering the time and effort to make a decent DVD, $25 is certainly a not-for-profit venture. And I have no objection to that price.

The next question is even considering that, would I want to pay $25 for it - I'm not so sure.

It's intended for a "do it yourself" type of person.
