Default Help! - Installed 35's. cant get tyre pressure alert to turn off with ProCal

Hi,
I recently installed 35 inch BFG's on Pintlers.
The tires are at 35 PSI (which is well above the stock low PSI alert)
I used the ProCal to set my speedo etc.
I also used the ProCal to try to set my Low PSI warning to charm below 25 PSI.

I cannot seem to get that charm to turn off!!

Does anyone have some ideas on how to fix this?

Thanks

Use the (0-15psi) setting. It worked for me. My tires are at 28psi. No chimes or (_!_) light...

Stupid question, but did you move your stock TPMS sensors into your new wheels?

Well, I got new tires and wheels fitted at once. I have not touched the original wheels.
Did I need to put a device into the new wheels?

Umm.. yeah. Nothing you will do shy of turning the tpms off all together will get it working if you didnt have them swap out the sensors to the new wheels.

If you didn't put in new sensors, that is your problem. It can't find the sensor and the alarm is on because of that.

You can turn off the alarm but you have to set the ProCal to off.

Mine took about a day and a half, but the light eventually went off. The guy at the tire place said it was common when changing pressure and threshold and it might take a day or 2 to settle out. I thought he was full of crap. But, turns out he was right in my case.

if you didn't move the sensors from your OEM wheels you need to set the procal to 0
