Default Tech 2 TPS turn-off

Can anyone tell me exactly how to turn off the TPS system in a 2002 Coupe with the TECH 2. I have found how to turn ON but not clear enough for my simple brain to turn OFF

I don't recall all the steps off the top of my head, but just go through them until you get to the part where you would be activating that BCM function (if you wanted the car to be able to read the TPS), and instead turn it off.

Looking for the same info.

Edit.
Found this. Originally posted by Evil-Twin. It looks like I'm out of luck with my '99.

"When we developed the C5, there was no thoughts of a Z06. The PCM and the BCM was designed without the option of turning off that which was a stock item on all C5 from 97 through 2000, It wasn't until 2001 that the option was added to the PCM algoritims. This option was added because the non runflat tires of the New Z06 did not come with sensors. Therefore a program had to be written to accomodate both run flat and non runflat applications. At this time the second gen sensors were added. This did not happen until 2001. Dont ask me how I know."

Scroll to Setting up tire pressure monitoring.
Step 19 shows the function on/off toggle.
An asterisk next to Tire Pressure Monitor means function is "on."
