I asked this on the 5 forum as well, but since the 5 is simlar to the 3, I though someone here might know. For the Mazda 3/5 (the 2010, specifically), does the TPMS light come on solid or flashing if you do not have the sensors installed (e.g., with a second set of mounted snow tires)? The owners manual (for both the 3 and 5, which are largely identical) implies that it blinks. It states that it will blink the entire time if the spare tire is being used, for example, but I suppose this may be different since it would be only missing one of the 4 sensors. I can deal with a solid light, but probably not a blinking one.
I also wanted to confirm that not having TPMS doesn't affect traction/stability contol or the ability to turn DSC off.
Thanks in advance for any insight!
