    I have read on the forums how to do this but it only covers 2009 and lower and I have a 2010. I unplugged my receiver located above the headliner and did not work. I looks for the wiring harness in pics located beside my glove box and do not see it, then I tired the one behind my ac controls and the wiring harness is setup differently.
    Can anyone help me? my light blinks for a min the goes solid which means a malfunction.

    TPWS?

    You mean TPMS?

    If it's the Tire Pressure Monitor System then it's integral to the body control module in the 10+ AFAIK, the best solution is to either ignore the light, replace the sensors, or make a simulator capsule with 4 sensors inside.

    The last solution is to cover the light on the cluster or pull the cluster and desolder the LED and resolder in a resistor or something of the same load as the diode.
