How to delete TPMS?

As the title say. Does anybody know how?
I found this to be a PITA when one of the sensors doesn't work, it's costly to have them replaced.

I'm not a fan of much of the electronic 'safety' items that are on modern cars, but the TPMS is one that I like having around.

Me too except when it doesn't work then you have to pay the dealer 90 bucks to them re-teach???

Done!

Here are some pics.

Remove glove compartment.
Find and remove the connector.
Cut the brown wire about 2.5" from connector.
Crimp the top portion of the brown wire to the white wire as per picture.

Enjoy!
No more damn TPMS BS!

That looks like a very simple fix!

My TPMS sensors have been sitting on a shelf in my garage since I bought my 2014. Yes, the TPMS dash light is on, but it doesn't bother me at all.
