    Has anyone found a way to disable the TPMS yet?

    My winter tires/rims from a previous Prius don't have the TPMS and I'm sick of looking at the light.

    The link dr_d12 posted was two threads below the new thread you started. A least read the current threads before you start a new one.

    Have you considered using a strategically placed piece of black tape?

    It is possible to get it done with Techstream cable, 2 minutes' work

    --Install software
    --Locate "Customize setting" menu
    --Utility
    View some TPMS and ABS values
    [​IMG]
    --select TMPS on the function menu and click “Data List”. Then you will see all real time data like vehicle speed, sensors ID, intake air temperature as well as each tire pressure and tire temperature etc.
