Tire pressure sensors.
For those that run after market wheels, what do you do about the tire pressure sensors?
Do you recommend re-installing them with new rims? If not using them will that set the light off on the DTC on a 1994? Last edited by rudolph schenker; 06-03-2009 at 04:23 PM. |

Re: Tire pressure sensors.
You can pull the bulb and most will say you don't need the sensors....
Sensors are hard to come by and can be very expensive. What kind of wheels are you thinking of going with? cheers David |

Re: Tire pressure sensors.
As stated most remove them. On the MY 90-91 you can pull the sensors and not see the service LTPWS light. On a 94 your only open is a piece of black electrical tape or to pull the blub as suggested.

Re: Tire pressure sensors.
Little update......
I put the Fiskes on with the Kumho ECSTA'S and no TPS light! I purposely left the tire pressure sensors off. Makes me wonder if the system wasn't working in the first place? Last edited by rudolph schenker; 06-14-2009 at 09:44 PM. |

Re: Tire pressure sensors.
Maybe the previous owner pulled the bulb. Turn the ignition key to the ON position but do not start the car. Look at the Driver Information Center lights. Top row, second from the right is the "Service LTPWS" light. If you don't see it, the bulb is out.
