Just got word that here in NY, if your TPMS light is on, you can fail inspection?

Looks like there will be a law, or something passed soon (Hopefully not) that says if your TPMS light is ON during inspection, you will not pass. Had my inspection done today and had them remove my TPMS from two wheels since they were broken and had a conversation with a guy about this. Looks like for anyone with different wheels & tires, this can't be good... let's just hope that's not the case

I hope not, but with all the stupid laws NY has been passing lately its not surprising

Get a mini rim and tire with 5 holes for wheel sensors and pressure the mini tire to 37 psi and carry in rear storage during inspections. Simple and cheap solution.

Sent from Texas with little respect for stupid laws.

Get a procal and set your tpms threshold to 0psi. I haven't had tpms for about a year and the light isn't on.

I'm in N.Y. And the stupidity never ends. This state is the worst.

Yep, exact same thing I did. Much cheaper and has more then one benefit.
