tire pressure monitors...anyway to turn them off?

[isenegger]

i have swapped out my wheels and the new wheels didnt come with monitors. i dont have my stockers either. i hate that the dash keeps reminding my of the monitors. i was wondering if they can be turned off or deleated somehow. i just got the tahoe tuned with efi live and it didnt have an option to turn it off on the ecu.

That is a dealer thing. And they don't make any promises that they can do it. They will charge you $95 to give it a shot though. It might be easier to find a new set of sensors and have them installed.

A black bear tune. They can turn it off.

jdpber Are you sure black bear can do it?

I thought Jenna told me that was a seperate ECU.

Pretty sure that's a completely inaccurate statement.

I've never heard of anyone outside of GM being able to do it and that's only if they are willing...

the dealer can set the threshold value so it will never set the light off, However the chances of them doing that for you are slim to none. You can score a take off set off ebay like 50 used, about 100 brand new.

If your cheap... you could take the gauge cluster out and remove the light!

I WAS referencing the TPMS warning light (like a '93 Tahoe) in the dash. It lights up like a flattened tire with an exclamation point on it. That's the one that bugged me for a little while until I replaced my TPMS w/ aftermarket. I bought mine from tire-sensors.com. They've worked great for a year now.

Of course , if the LCD display is the one that's bothersome, you could always disable that too.....
