Question: LTPWS Light on??

[MusclecarJohn]

Hey everyone,
I recently had new tires put on my '92 and the tire guy said that he couldn't reinstall the tire pressure sensors/bands for some reason?? :confused
Now my LTPWS light is on, I saved the original sensors and bands anyway, you guys will probly tell me to get the sensors reinstalled but I just wanted to know if I can clear this code/light from coming on untill I get the bands put back Thanks .... John

No. You can't

Other than replacing the sensors other choices are remove the bulb from the LTPWS service light or cut the power to the LTPWS.

I'll add that any "tire guy" who can't deal with the sensors on those wheels is a tire guy you need not to do business with.

In SoCal there are tire vendors who can deal with the LTPWS sensors on a C4. One of them is Tucker Tire Service Co. in Covina.

I wish I knew of a good Corvette guy near Pottsville, PA.
My dealer in nearby Ashland just closed its doors last week.
Now I'm outta luck and I've got some problems.

LTPWS Light

You can remove the bulb, or if you plan to reinstall the sensors, I think you can pull the fuse for the cruise control.

I pulled the bulb on my 96 when one of the sensors failed. After looking at the cost of replacing it, I opted for the cheapest way out.

Thanks JCS and Jake,
I guess I'll do as you guys and take the bulb out for now
until I get the sensors put back

I've seen them for sale on the Corvette Forum - forums.corvetteforum.com on the C4 Parts For Sale board.

Hope this helps.
