i purchased a set of 18" wheels and tires from tirerack. I forgot the Xd had sensors in the wheels. Now my light stays on because i dont have the sensors installed in the new 18" wheels. The sensors are still in my factory wheels/tires. Will it pass inspection with that light on? Or should i put my stock wheels/tires back on for inspection. It costs so much money to swap out the sensors! Any help on this matter.....

Should pass OK. It's just an "idiot light" for the tire pressure. Typically they should only care about the CEL, if anything.

i dont remember where I saw it but there was a DIY on how to trick the sensors for people who did not want to use them. It involved getting a PVC pipe and capping both ends, then mounting the valve in the pipe and filling the pipe with the appropriate pressure. Then he kept the pipe in the back of his xb where the jack is stored and the light stayed off.
