Default TPMS Fault.

Got new shoes and wheels at discount tire. Had them install new TPMS sensors at the same time. When I left it was showing pressure. Got home about a 10 min drive and just as I was getting to the house TPM fault and all 4 wheels show nothing on the screen now. I have the stock spare on the back right now finishing my new bumper so I don't have the 35" spare, I left it at the shop.

Any ideas?

What year is your jeep? Jeep changed sensor transmit frequencies in 2013. If the tpms sensor is on the wrong frequency it will give an error. I pulled the sensors and had them put into my new wheels. I believe you may have to link the sensors via computer. Last time I had my Jeep at the stealership they said that they couldn't orient them because my lug key was missing (somehow this is done with the tires off).

Edit

It seems there is no reprogram required for the 2013 or newer sensors. Drive over 15 mph for 10 minutes.

2015. The weird part is that for 8-10 minutes they were reporting pressure then faulted out.

It takes about that long before they receive the signal. Mine did that when I installed wheels off of a 2011 jku.

So the pressure I was seeing was from my old tires?
