Mounting TPMS control box?

**lee gsi** · 20th July 2011, 18:31

How does the TPMS control box get mounted?

What way uo does it go (On a Signum if it makes a difference)?

Mine was meant to go below the offside rear light cluster but I didnt have the mount so I've attatched it to the alarm bracket. The bracket has a mount that fits the TPMS module perfectly.... this is on a preface Vec C

Does it matter what way the mast faces?

The Signum it goes by the nearside light cluster.

I have made a bracket and can see where the original bracket would bolt but not sure what way up it goes.

hi lee

the module sits upright withthe little aerial pointing upwards

there is a bracket available from vauxhall to mount it but i just tucked mine
in the gap were the trim pulls off to access the near side rear lamp.

Mines in Lee and Tech 2'd today but the update rate seems slow bit disappointed as the psi isn't displayed straight away takes a minute or so to come up after that its brand new just a little disappointed.

I'm fairly sure this is normal.... it takes approx 5mins after setting off for my CID to display the PSI on all 4 wheels and it updates every couple of minutes (while moving) however it immediately registers any deflation outside the limits set by Tech2.

I still want TPMS

.. even thou it wont show the actually pressure in mine

At the moment I just have the front receiver fitted (as the wiring was there) and on the way to work this morning it started to register pressures. Fronts came up first then one of the rears registered somehow lol.

Hoping to get the rear loom and receiver fitted over the weekend and then Tech2'ed so the warning pops up on the dash when the pressure gets to low.
