TPMS

I just put 4 new MPS4S on OEM ZL1 wheels without any TPMS.

Is there a way to clear my DIC window from, "service tire pressure monitor sensor" , or will it always be on unless I put TPMS in the tires ?

Thanks

Why would you want to drive around without TPMS?

It could save your life.

I check my tire air pressure religously once a week & inspect the tires.

I believe in addition to the light being on you will not be able to put it in competition mode or turn off all nannies until you have tps.

I run 14psi at the track with the car yelling at me to air the tires up and never had a problem turning the nannies off.

I have the sensors in though, so that might change things.

yes - that's because you have sensors.

All you have to do is press the cancel button on the end of your turn signal.
A yellow indicator by your speed-o-meter will remain on.

Competition mode works fine without the TPMS. Tried it today.
