TPMS options not showing for 2018 Ford Explorer.

Post by x84 Fox Body »

Hello guys, im new here, I was trying to turn off the TPMS on my mom's 2018 Ford Explorer but dont see the options in the BCM or IPC? If anyone has any ideas or a data sheet to manually enter the numbers that would be great, thanks in advance.

This is a great walkthrough video, however, when I look into the BCM and IPC I dont get any options for disabling or enabling the tpms sensors, ill see if I can get a screenshot of what im looking at.

TPMS is a safety system. Ford will not give you the option to disable it. You may only disable it by modifying the as built data. Maybe someone has figured that out, I don't know.
