Default tpms question

i took my sensors our of my stock wheels, have them in a baggy, going to keep them loose until i have to change tires on one of my other sets. is there a way that i can get the sensors to read 0psi as normal so that the light will be off? i will be keeping them in my trunk for the time being...

You could try resetting the TPMS switch under the dash with the sensors in the car but I doubt that they will accept 0psi as the correct pressure. Others have made a pressure chamber from PVC and put the sensors inside it to get rid of the dash lite.
