Tire sensor

So only a day after swapping rims I'm tired of my tire sensor flashing! Anyone know how to cancel that light? What fuse do I need to pull out?

It can't be disabled.

Either deal with it, get your sensors installed, or bust your cluster open and cover it.

It can be disabled as far as I know (will depend on the car), but you'll have to figure out how to do it yourself. I looked it up and it says it is illegal for a shop to intentionally do this, so you're most likely on your own OR get some sensors. Still have the stock rims? You can just swap them off those...

you need to reprogram the sensor for the new wheels

Not sure if this is true but I heard you can stick the sensors in your spare tire and as long as it has air your light wont come on
