At this time there is no way to disable or adjust the system. </div></div>

I spent nearly 30 minutes reading his owners manual thinking that I'd find which fuse controlled the TPMS circuit. No luck. Plan B is to remove the sensors and hope that there is no chimes, bells, or whistles to go along with the dash light. 80 PSI in the rear tires of an empty F350 is BRUTAL! </div></div>

Unfortunately "Plan B" is a waste of time and will not give you the results you desire. Leaving the sensors in and running the pressures you desire will give you the same result as taking them out. Eventually the truck will start to "remind" you if your do not take care of the light in the dash.

The only solution that I have seen work is to build a tube out of PVC that you can pressurize and put the sensors in that and keep it in the vehicle.
