    How to turn off the TPM, do I need dealer.

    All I have ever had to do with a 2003-2006 viper to get the TPM to relearn was to disconnect the battery for one minute and then reconnect it. just make sure your keys are in your pocket so you can unlock the car door.

    Open the hood and stand with your back to the engine. Look in to the air scoop and you will see a black plastic baffle. It is held in place by three #1 Phillips screws which are very hard to turn out.
