Remove TPMS on 08 F250?

[phill1060]

Mine is an early Job 2 and it has no tire pressure sensor (but I don't have the dpf regen message either)

I don't believe the fuse that controls the TPMS only controls the TPMS, would be nice though.

This is really pissing me off! My buddy got GMC to reprogram his sensors and I can't even get a dealer to look at my damn truck!!!

I talked to Matt @ Spartan about this..he says hes working on a way around it.

I need something done bad now...my 37's were rated for 65psi and the light did not come on...I just put my 38's on and they max at 50psi....well of course the dang light is on now!!

Soon as that happens, I'm buying it. I'll do the TPMS first then after I get enough miles I'll do the DPF. Maybe even put a with DPF tune on it until I get enough miles for the removal.

Installing the sensors in the spare or pressurized PVC pipe will not work. The sensors must spin to activate and to charge the batteries.

THE TT lite will stay off (well mine does) 10 PSI below recommended PSI, any lower and you s*** out of luck.

i dont think its strictly 10 lbs. i think its a percentage of what it's supposed to be. that percentage may be 10 lbs but its different from the 250 to the 350. thats why people were thinkin the f 150 sensors would work.
i hope someone finds a tune to dis able it though they are a pain in the butt and my opinion is if you are dumb enough not to check your tires thats just natural selection. people need to be held accountable for being stupid

Amen!!

Guys, I just bought my 2008 last week. Not to sound like a jerk but RTFM.
See page 230. This reset tool is supposed to be provided to you free of charge. If you never received it make sure you get one.

Also, the TPMS is WIRELESS. the pvc can of air won't work I'm afraid... the sensor on the wheel looks like a hose clamp around it and it feeds to the computer via wireless. Lower on page 230 is the procedure for reseting your sensors.

its suppose to be free of charge and come with the truck but that didn't happen and when I ask the service writer and parts guy about it they give me the look . you can purchase it form ford but I don't remember the price.
