Another couple questions from this newb

First, is there a way to disable to disable the TPMS sensor light in the gauge cluster (easily). I suspect my newly acquired Titan doesn't have a TPMS sensor in one of the wheels (they are incorporated into the valve stem, correct?). If so, are there any easy ways to disable the light without buying a new sensor and having the ECU programmed?

Second, this probably sounds crazy, but does anyone else's truck make a mechanical/motor sound in the dash just behind the center console? I noticed this last night after I shut it down and again today while sitting idling at a light. Kind of sounds like pump or something but the sound cycles like a clock's 'TIC-TOC'. Not something I'm used to in any of my other cars. At first I thought it was the ABS pump cycling, but the truck wasn't even started. What is this sound?

Thanks!

I do not think the TPMS can be disabled since it is a safety feature or something. To disable the TPMS light, you'd have to pull the cluster out and take it apart and either tape over it or pull the LED light.

The sound you're hearing is the vents moving around.

Oh, the vents move? Interesting. Never had a vehicle do this before, thanks for the info.
