Default Check System Light...

Hi.. I just installed the Volk Racing rims and at first, there was no light.. after a while driving, the Check System Light came on.. I know the rims aren't compatible so I went back and i had them put the valve sensors into a dolly tire... right now, the dolly tire with the sensors in it is just on the side of my back trunk... I start the car and the engine light is still on.. Will the light eventually go off once i drive it more just like how the light didn't go on until i drove the car a while longer or will i have to reset the light? If i need to reset it, how do i reset it?

Do you have 37psi in that tire? Have you made sure that the main set of sensors is selected?

Does the light read "check engine" if so it ain't got anything to do with your tires.

i'm guessing i just have to wait for the sensors to read right? basically all 4 sensors are in the dolly tire with the tire pressure to about 37psi...

it did take a while for me to drive until the Check System Light came on.. it's not the Check Engine Light.. i know the Check System Light has to do with the tire sensors.. i hope i didn't break it ray

do you think putting at the center glove box will be better? I would think it's better cuz it's more center.
