I just couldn't stomach $175 for 5 new sensors and then the need to go buy a TPMS tool etc etc. I'll jumper the two wires under the dash and be done with TPMS on these wheels for now.

Luckily my gf and I have been dating a while, and she has spent considerable time around cars with me since about 15 years old. Her knowledge has become far and beyond most women that I know and most men as well. Seems like hardly anyone has a clue about how the metal box that they are traveling in every day over 70 mph, operates and functions. In fact she knows what all common car fluids smell like and even how to change a spare and even oil! However she doesn't really do any work on cars or get dirty, because she doesn't enjoy it like me, but she at least has an understanding of what is going on and if there is ever a problem can typically give me all pertinent info over the phone for diagnosis.
Yeah, a 5$ pack of scotchlocks did the trick for me and was obviously better than shelling out ~150$~ for worthless (imo) sensors
