I was thinking what a hassle tpms would be for people who drove jeeps on sand. I pulled the Mistubishi dash and there is supposed to be a way to rewire the TPMS alert into another light which will illuminate when started and shut off, but I never got around to it.
The volvo light? No way I could figure that out.
I did order some VDO 433 sensors this am and am going to just have them installed. Hopefully they should get recognized and be good to go.
My wife's 2015 volvo is weird that once a TPMS trips, it seems to need to be reset, even if the pressure is fixed, but on my 2014, it will reset itself once it receives a signal. Later models have a recalibrate function set right in the center display computer settings. My 2005 doesn't have any of this stuff. It's my favorite!
