Trust me, you do NOT want to drive around with the TPS warning going off. This is not just a "light", it consumes the entire display, and there is no way to bypass it. You can't see your ave MPG, or anything. It takes over with orange display everywhere telling you that the TPS system detects a problem. Mine recently came on for no reason and it would not turn off no matter what I did. I had to take it to the dealer and they said it was a bad stem valve.

Bottom line: The TPS warning is the most annoying and distracting thing I have ever witnessed on a car display. It even flashes (constantly) a big exclamation point to the point where you have to look twice to see if it's your turn signal that you left on. Very annoying, so avoid at all costs.

If you hold in the display button it temporarily goes back to normal. Not really a fix, but an FYI.

You mean temporarily as in it will disappear for a few minutes, or until the next time you start the car?

It's like 20 seconds unfortunately. Like I said, it's not a fix, but if you really needed to see some data on there, you could.

What about the fuse? If you pull it what happens?

It goes back to normal for literally 5 secs. It was extremely annoying. I don't think anyone needs that much of a warning that their tire is low. lol

Has anyone ask Suzuki? There must be an alternative so when you purchase new tires and wheels and you do not want to transfer or purchase sensors, what do they recommend?
