The only way you can do it currently is with the AEV Procal module. It will set an error code in the computer which isn't a big deal, or cause any issues.

To do this with the AEV Procal, do you just set the low tire pressure threshold to 0 with the dip switches?

.......and assuming I set TPMS setting to 0 with the ProCal, do I still need to have the TPMS sensors in the wheels or can I take them out entirely without the dash light coming on?
