Fixing that annoying TPMS Light on Dash.
Well the wheels i bought are the RH R7's and the stock sensors were not able to be put on due to the wheel design. So i roll around with the light on all the time. I know there is a way to turn this off, there has to be a fuse that you can probably pull out and maybe it would turn off. Does any one know what fuse this is, has it been done before? Is there a wiring diagram for the dash lights that i can have access to so i can try to do this and let you guys know the outcome? Thanks alot guys!

Interesting concept but totally useless in this case. The Nissan sensors have a centrifugal switch that cause them to turn on and transmit only when the wheel is rotating - that helps save battery life. You can't trick them into working by pressurizing them or doing much of anything else except spinning them in a circle. That might be a little dangerous in the back of the car.

To the OP: Not sure about RH wheels but for Volk multi pc wheels you can "band" your TPS to your rims when you swap tires. Shouldn't be a hard mod to do. Most single piece wheels you can swap TPS's.
