Changed wheels & tires & new sensors now tire pressure is unavailable and tpms light is on. Shops saying it’s to new to reset anyone know the deal? Thanks

I was looking something else up in the manual and read about TMPS; I forget the page but it’s in there.

Do you have the correct sensor for your VIN? My understanding is there was a TPMS sensor change on Jeep builds after June 5th. The updated part number for units built after June 5th is #68339096AB. They are on backorder with no ETA. Previous sensors are not compatible.

Not sure, I bought wheels and tires from a reputable business and he ordered new sensors.. they worked fine for the first half hour then boom they all went blank. And the last 3 days it says tire pressure unavailable

Hmm I'm interested in this, they should just auto relearn. Jeep doesn't even have a manual relearn process for the ECU as far as I know.

Driving over ~15mph for 20min should get them working but it sounds like that isn't happening.

Why does it have to be jeep tpms sensors? I think a sensor from any company should work.

Day 3 of driving and well over 50mph and still nothing. I’m really hoping they would relearn themselves so I don’t have to re mount & balance & new sensors yet again but I think I’m screwed

Not all sensors are the same. To complicate things Jeep had a mid-year change on sensors. A TPMS scan tool should be able to read the configuration of your original sensors.
  • OEM sensors are a direct replacement of original manufactured sensors. The ID’s are already written to the sensor, therefore, it does not need to be configured before it is installed.
  • Programmable or configurable sensors are aftermarket universal TPMS sensors. The sensor must be programmed or cloned from an OEM or another aftermarket sensor before use, using a TPMS tool.
  • One-to-one TPMS sensors are aftermarket sensors that are a direct replacement of an OE sensor with one preloaded sensor protocol. The ID’s are written to the sensor and does not need to be configured before use.
If you get the wrong sensors. It will be expensive to fix the problem. You will have to buy new sensors and have them installed. This will involve removing the tires from the wheels and having them re-balanced.

All 3 of those types of sensors should work though? Just have to program then for the jeep?

On a different note I would love if tire shops actually understood tpms. I couldn't get any tire shop to do cloned tpms for me so I bought a vt37 and did it myself.

So can I just have the original ones swapped out and put into the new wheels? Also can a dealer make the new ones that aren’t correct work correct. Thanks in advance and sorry I’m lost

They tried to reprogram them again today no luck. Their saying to just swap with the originals

I bought a Schrader EZ-Sensor GO 33560 that I'm going to test out and see if it sends data to the cars computer. I'm going to program and clone it using my vt37. This should at least make it clear what will or won't work.

So I got my 33560 yesterday. Cloned the sensor ID and went for a drive this morning but it didn't get picked up by the car. It's still in park mode, so are all the stock sensors though. Where I live it's hard to drive over about 25mph, takes me about an hour to get somewhere to go 30+ for any extended period of time. So I'm going to have to do more testing to see if the new sensor registers.

Add me to the list. Went back to the tire store a 2nd time and they said a rescan of the sensors should work, but it did not. Hopefully we find a solution soon!

any idea what sensors they are using? I think the OE part number is 68339096AB. This should be super easy to get working but for some reason it doesn't seem like anyone has had any luck.
