Camden, TPS, Mission Control. HELP Please

My wife just got a 2010 MCS Camden, with Mission Control. Anyway I was wondering if any body knows if I got winter wheels and tires without TPS sensors in them if the Mission Control would go crazy. I was wondering because I know that the warning light will be on and Mission Controls likes to warn you about almost everything like, no seat belt, e-brake, ect.

Any help would be greatly appreciated I don’t want to spend all winter hearing it tell me my tires are flat.

I guess I could turn mission control off or lower my tire pressure and drive around and check.

Also does anybody know if I can take the TPS sensors out of my factory 17 and put them into 18. Wasn’t sure I figure if the psi is the same it would be ok.??..

if you get tired of mission control, i'll take it

you can, i'm told, modify files on the SD card that contains the sounds, so you could perhaps find the ones (if there are indeed any about TPMS sensors) and replace them with blank noise...

Hey, if you are going to paste in from another app, go to Advanced and preview the message before posting. Or, click the Edit button after posting and get rid of the junk that didn't work.

Whenever you change wheels or adjust air pressure, reset the TPMS so it can recalibrate on the new wheels or pressure change. Once done, no complaints from Houston.

Yes, if they fit the new wheels (most likely will). You're going to make your wife drive around on 18" wheels? That's harsh.
