So I decided to get wheels and wasnt interested in putting in the sensor on the new wheels. I called the dealer and talked to an advisor to see if I can just disable the sensor in the car all together. I was told even though if i dont use the sensor on the new wheels the light would come on for a few days and will eventually turn off by itself and wont come on again. Can anyone verified if this is correct. thanks

 

I beleived you can turn that off by yourself.

 

they are lying to you

 

^^^^+1.......

 

you cannot complete disable the sensors.

 

so what you saying is that the light will stay on forever until it receives a signal from the wheel sensor? oh yeah...Lexus of Westminster quoted me $140 each for the sensor before taxes...I wonder if you can strap all 4 sensors in the spare tire.

 

precicely or you can use the pipe bomb method.. just don't get pulled over and g et your trunk searched. haha

 

i wouldnt put it in the spare tire, what if you need to use the spare

 

Couldnt you strap them on securely and still be able to use the spare? I dont see why you cant.

 

if you want to strap them on your spare why dont you strap them on your rims. usually those who don't want tpms is because their wheels won't accept them

 

TPMS require a pressure signal in order to clear the light, you would have to put them in pressurized container to prevent the dash lights from coming on. As ihkskim said pressurized pipe or wheel barrow wheel.

 

What does this response mean?

 

^^^^^ - "what the guy above me said".
and "+1" as I agree or adding a count to the number of people who agree.

Just forum lingo FTW!
