So you are telling me that a steady light that we had for months without the sensors in the rims doesnt mean that?(im sure that means low tire or missing TPS) I wanna know why they started flashing??????????? we already know there is no sensor in the wheel the light told us that when we got these done.

From what I've read you don't need a flash to get the receiver to recognize the sensor transponder. Each wheel sensor transponder transmits its ID and the receiver learns it's position automatically, this allows you to rotate the tires without TPS issues.

This TPS thing is another stoke of genius from DCX, from what I’ve read it can not be disabled. I can keep track of my tire pressure without this wonderful technology... gezzzz!

I want to make sure I understand the TPS light issue. Since putting on the new wheels the TPS light has been on steady and recently started blinking?

Possibly one came loose on you. Here’s some info on the TPS => Link

Maybe one of the switches went bad swapping to the new wheels and now another has gone south. <= as you can see there's a lot of guessing going on here

Take it to the dealershipthat issueshould be covered under warranty.
