The method applied and shown in the attached video, valid not only for the Smart Fortwo but for any car, serves exactly what is requested, that is, to disable the anti-theft system. What does it consist of? Simple, once the module that manages the aforementioned anti-theft system is identified, it is bypassed, in practice the two wires that communicate activation and deactivation are bridged, so a signal will always be provided to the vehicle's ECU. Of course, a bit of skill is required and it should be remembered that this kind of intervention is purely for maintenance purposes, it is not recommended to keep this modification permanently.

How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light on a MG ZS?

On the instrument cluster of the MG ZS, the tire pressure light that appears can be reset by inflating the tires to the correct pressure: this value will be indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tires have been properly inflated, you can turn on the instrument cluster and navigate through the menu until you find the option that indicates tire pressure: if this screen shows the new values, the light will turn off; otherwise, you will need to drive for a few miles so that the sensors can read the new values and turn off the light afterward.
