I bought the new sensors from a jeep dealership. So I hope they put the right year on. My jeep jk is a 2015.

Yeah... there's a split in the years I think (like I said above).

I know that TPMS from a 2014 worked on my wife's 2016

Are you sure? I was told it uses a different frequency that's why the TPMS sensors didn't work for me.

Sport to Sahara

I swapped my 2014 sport wheels for 2014 Sahara wheels, went fine, and the tires read the pressure for the first 5 miles. then the system reported an error with the read out __ __ . Should I have this reset at a tire place? I drove for 10 miles at sustained speed to see if it would reset?

Thank you for any advice!
