Default Can’t turn off stability control anymore?

After i put 19 inch rear wheels with drag radials my stability track/control didn’t wanna turn off with the button. I was able to turn it off a few times but now I it won’t turn off. Traction control turns off just fine. I’m not using tpms sensors on the new rear wheels so my tire pressure light is always on. Anybody know if the low tire pressure light messes with the stability control switch?

No, the TPMS is a warning only, but I bet you have a size differrence between front rear that the system doesn't like. What size tires are you using?

read in my book that tpms light won’t let you turn off stability trac. I put my other wheels with tpms and it works fine now. Problem solved

There's a procedure to bypass this. Can't remember it. Do a search

I have run several track events without sensors in all 4 wheels and I can reset the TPMS warning and have no issues with Traction or Stability Control. However, some drag racers report they can't shut down TPMS errors if there are two operating sensors on the car. It looks like it is none at all or all four installed if you don't want problems.
