Default Replaced front springs

Hello everyone, my son and I finally found the time to replace my front springs. We replaced the rubber sleeve and the meatal piece in the cushion and spring. My little crossfire what an improvement. Installing was great paid attention to my service Manuals. Bought all my parts from NEEDSWINGS Rob is great to work with. My next project replacing the TPMS I really do not like lights on the dash. I had no issues until I replaced the rear tire in experienced people.

There is a "TPMS module bypass" in the documents collection (downloadable FREE from the site here) with pictures. It involves removing one pin from the connector and placing it into the open slot that is not used. The TPMS module is located behind the dome light assembly wrapped in foam like tape. Get that .pdf, do the wire swap, and you'll not have that pesky light again (all it will cost is a little of your time). You'll need a torx screwdriver to remove the dome lamp, be careful when removing the lens (there are a couple of tabs you need to depress to get the lens off). Unplug the identified connector, use a slim pin to depress the tab to slide the correct wire out of the connector, then place it back into the unused slot, reconnect the connector halves and re-wrap the connector and place back into it's place (careful to not pinch the wires when reinstalling the dome light). Then just reinstall the dome light, no more light on the dash (and it'll also pass the bulb check for if you have a state inspection). Good luck!

I wonder if the sending unit was broken or died when your tire was replaced?
There is a thread on here somewhere that tells what brand and model sensors to get. If they are still sending a signal I believe the new ones can be programmed to replaced the originals.
