Default tire sensor question

One of my tire sensors is not working so I removed it, which is fine because I dont really care about that feature....however everytime I start my car the "service tire mon system" message comes up on the computer....Is there a way to unactivate that so the message will stop comming up?

Thanks
Scott

Nope! :nonod: Not that I'm aware of. I'm sure it's possible through reprogramming, but so far nobody has come up with a simple solution.

The only way that I know that you can get rid of it is to push reset when you first start up your car. The previous owner of my car put chrome Z06 wheels on my car without swapping out the sensors. Now I have to push reset every time until I buy new tires and have them mounted on the Z06 wheels.
