Hi everyone!
I got new wheels and I left the sensors in the stock wheels, and do not want to put them in my new wheels, so naturally the tire pressure light is on now and it dings every time I start my car and sometimes it goes crazy and chimes four times every minute while I'm driving and it's really annoying.
Now I know I can disable this by buying the AEV ProCal or Superchips and set the pressure to 0, but I really don't want to buy something for 200+ dollars that I'm only gonna use once for 5 minutes, and it's expensive (I live in Europe, so e-bay is my only solution, and shipping is high). And I'm not sure if I can use it on my 2.8 diesel engine.
There are also NO laws in my country regarding the TPMS, so I want to completely REMOVE it from my car. Not turn it off, but remove it. cut a wire, remove a fuse, pull everything out, I don't know, but there has to be a way. I went to my dealership, and I can't even begin to explain how useless they are, so I want to do it myself.
Logically, there has to be a wire I can disconnect or cut to turn this off. I just don't know which one.
Someone please help me, It's really driving me insane.

 

Pretty sure not. I've seen a couple posts where guys tossed the sensors in a pressured container and put them in the glove box.

 

Yeah, I read that too, that's not an option. I can't believe there is no way to remove the system.

 

There is no wire you can cut. BOOHOO...the dealer is worthless. Put you sensors in or buy the programmer. The dealer CANNOT disable or fool your system...even if they were stupid and chose to for some reason.

 

I'm sorry, there is no need to be rude, I asked nicely, I don't get your attitude. If you can't help me, don't bother posting. I know the dealer can't help me and I also know one of the solutions is to buy a programmer, but as I said, I'm not planning to, I'm asking if anyone knows another way?

 

I can't recall ever reading about anyone successfully deleting the TPMS other than by using a programmer.

 

Is there a reason why you don't want to put them in the new wheels and tires?

I don't think there is a way to cut the whole system out of the jeep. It's programmed into the ECU itself. So really the only way is to use the reprogrammer.

ok, thanks. i guess i'll have to get the procal eventually. Yes, there is a reason, but it's complicated. my country has really stupid laws.

 

You could write a PM to Rick, the Quadratec representative on here.
If you place your order for the procal through him you'll get discounted shipping.

 

ok, thanks!
