How can I disable my tire pressure monitoring system. I'm not running the monitors in my drag wheels.

hrpiii · 03-28-2016, 07:42 AM

can't. either put sensors in your drag tires or begin to love that dashlight.

make something out of PVC pipe, seal 2 sensors with the fill nozzle sticking out. fill pipe to 32psi, program sensors to car when you go racing.

Where did you locate the pipe?

I would imagine anywhere is fine. Best if it’s not rolling around or where it can cause damage to other components.
Spare tire area?

SFR7771 · 08-30-2022, 11:10 AM

That's what i was thinking also put it in that spare tire inflation pump area!

Made it last night put in spare tire holder and cleared codes 40 psi on pipe and front tires... will let you after drive test what happens. Thanks

What was the outcome?

Here’s something interesting from another thread.

Yes you are correct:

When the vehicle is stationary, the sensors internal shock sensor is inactive which puts the sensors into a Stationary state. In this state the sensors sample tire pressure once every 30 sec and do not transmit at all if the tire pressure does not change. As vehicle speed increases, the shock sensor pulses every wheel rotation, which puts the sensor into Rolling mode. The remote control door lock receiver receives and then sends the tire pressure and temperature data to the body control module (BCM). The BCM translates the data contained in the tire pressure sensor radio frequency transmissions into sensor presence, sensor mode, and tire pressure. Once vehicle speed is greater than 40 km/h (25 MPH), the sensors begin to transmit once a minute keeping the pressure data up to date.

Interesting, I might just break down my beadlocks and put sensors in them and see if it will work. Thanks

I don't think I would mess with doing that....

I was going to do the pipe method as well, then thought this is 2022 surely there is something better. I bought a simulator off EBAY, unfortunately I didn't have much luck with it.

Then I bought this one. Another member on here recommended it and has had success with it. I tried it and used on the way to Kentucky, which is about a 6 hour drive. I couldn't get it to hold the dreaded light off for more then about 20 minutes. I talked to the seller, who was super helpful. I ended up swapping mine for another and haven't had any issues since.... Granted I haven't taken it on any multi hour trips. So far so good and it's just 2 AA batteries and I throw it in the center console.

The website seems cheesy but I'm telling you the seller is awesome and it was worth the risk to me.
