Why? Because my tpms light won’t go away, despite the pressures being 100% right.

They also tried to sell me a $100 oil change and a $120 spark plug change.

Cold weather. Ignore it. Happens to me every winter.

Same thing is happening with my Grand Cherokee, except the TPMS light flashes and dings at me each time I start it, and then will randomly flash and not ding while driving.

Since I got new tires a year ago at Discount Tire, and they rebuilt the TPMS sensors, I went there. Their scanner got signal from all 4 sensors, so they couldn’t tell which one is going bad. Dude figured one (or more) of the batteries is probably dying, and said I could either wait til the light is on all the time, or preemptively replace all 4 sensors at 60 bucks a pop to shut it up.

I’m still rocking the old sensors. For now.

It’s not, it warmed up and didn’t go out.

I’m sure you tried - but i have to ask - the reset procedure? It’s detailed in the manual, every time my snows go on/off or the temp changes I have to go back reset them. And I have to go back and re-read the procedure because I think I remember the procedure but in fact I do not.

Otherwise - my sympathies. Nothing more annoying than stupid electronic issues on these things.

Reset them many times, however it pops back on. The tire shop said that one lost its programming
