Default Any way to turn off the TPMS??
I am getting new rims and dont want to have to worry about moving the sensors over to the new rims....is there any way to turn off the TPMS or turn off the light if the sensors are not installed?

Thanks,

Either that or hit the reset every time you start your car.

Just hit the reset button - takes a split second and costs nothing. Becomes second nature when starting the car - you won't even have to think about it after a week or 2.
