I remember the hole through the ratchet being too small to fit the connector on the end of the sensor. If it isn't, then it's a big win.

The manual shows someone using a "tube spanner", which is basically a piece of hex tubing with the correct ID for the head of the sensor (13mm I think) and an OD that nicely fits a wrench, like 15mm.

I went to Lowes. Bought a deep socket -$5. Then coiled the wire in the socket. Took less than a minute to install.
