Exclamation low tire pressure light question
for the winter i put my stock 17" scion rims on and like 150 miles later my low tire pressure light came on and i reset it and it keeps coming on i checked my tire pressure its all fine one of my rims is a replica scion rim without the tire pressure sensor could that be the problem? my aftermarket rims dont have a pressure sensor on them and it does not throw the light on. anyone have any solutions?

well they are clearly not connected to anything. the 05s dont use the tpms in teh rim. hence why ur aftermarket rims worked fine without them.
