My buddy the dealer drives an Escape Hybrid with the same pressure monitoring system.
There came a point this summer when the pressure sensors reached 40 degrees Celsius and they sent some sort of extreme error message to the ECU that made the vehicle undrivable -- when they tried to reset it (this is a dealer remember) something got fubared and they ended up having to replace the ECU.
So just "disconnecting" the system or the warning light probably isn't a good idea at all.
