TPMS bypass idea update...
Well.. I was able to get a tube 100% sealed, reset everything, fired up truck, test drive, everything worked as planned.
20 minutes into test drive, all the tire pressure #s went blank and the "Service Tire Pressure System" light came on again. Ugh
I was conveniently only a few miles from my local dealer when this happened, so i figured what the hell.
The "Commerical" side of my local dealer (Carl Burger in El Cajon CA) is completely separate from their main one and they have their own service area.
Before i even got out of my truck, several workers came outside to see what the hell this obscene project was and ask me questions... Thats a good start..
LONNNNNNG story short, and several of them verified this. The method i used to try to trick the computer used to work for the 2018 and older models.
And of course, the 2019 newer sensors, dont just take air pressure into consideration, but also MOTION. Explains why it worked for a little bit, and then failed.
Sooooo... Saga continues!
