Exclamation Help Please

I was wondering if anyone had any idea how to get rid of that annoying TPMS (low tire pressure) light? Looks like they stole my sensors when I had a flat tire not to long ago and am looking for a temporary fix just to get the indicator light turned off?? Any suggestions??

There is no way to get rid of it, it's a federal mandate therefore there is no bypass or "trick" to turn it off, you can't even remove the light bulb because it will set off a MIL. Chances are your sensor wasn't stolen they either broke the strap taking the off and its floating around in your tire or they never put it back in after they broke it.

Sensors aren't all that expensive, you can but one from the dealer for like $60 and a generic rim strap for about $15. Budget that in the order that you feel is important and get it done
