Really? Has no one disabled this worthless dash drama?When I trashed my front wheel running over a grapefruit sized junk of concrete I bought a ZX14 wheel. It came with a good tire so I ran with the ZX14 stem until the tire was used up. No issues with the dash, read showed PSI as usual, front showed ---, no warning, no red light. Next tire change I stuck the TPS in the ZX14 wheel and all was back to OEM. Hope that answers your question.

Thanks for the excellent write up and detailed photos. I used the exact same clamps and 2x4 blocks and your procedure worked perfectly. Was really glad to get the sensors out without taking the wheels to the dealer.
Is it possible to replace them, by t just breaking the bead on the rims or do you need to take the wheel off. I want to replace both the front and rear. Thanks for the help.
Yes, it takes two wood clamps (cabinet clamps) and four small blocks of wood and is actually quite easy to do. I did a few just this last Saturday. I can do both sensors, from pulling the Schrader valve to re-inflating the tires and of course soldering new batteries into both sensors in an hour and 5 minutes. The first time you do it it may take longer though. ;)
