Default Exactly what is the stock tire pressure?

I recently started airing down when out wheeling with the local club, what is the exact pressure I need to be at to make the damn dash low air pressure light shut off?

There should be a label when you open the driver door either on the door jam or on the door itself. It will have the air pressure for the tires there.

My air pressure light won't go off but the air pressure on all the tires is correct. Anyone else have issues with a bad sensor? 2011 rubicon

I believe it's 37psi on my '11Rubi. I do know you have to drive it about 5 miles or so before the light goes off.

It was not the tire sensor in mine, my receiver system died that communicates with the sensors. It went bad the first time I aired down. Thought I did something wrong. Luckily covered under warranty. They replaced the module and re-programmed my system. All good now.

Not sure if it is the norm, but mine is particularly sensitive. Must be a girl jeep...LOL I need mine to be 36-38 psi for the light to go off. The other day it actually got a little cold and the light came on for few minutes till the tires warmed up. PITA.

Welcome to the club. I have a 2012 rubi and the TPMS system seems to be a piece of junk. I've seen others on this forum that have the same problems. Mine goes on and off all the time for absolutely no reason whatsoever. After a few days of checking the pressure regularly, I was certain I didn't have a leak or was losing pressure, so I just ignore the light. I know it's annoying and the system can be helpful if something is really wrong, but it had given me so many false errors that I don't trust it anymore. Could definitely be a bad sensor. Did you check your spare too?

You need to have the same air pressure in all tires even the spare otherwise it will go off.

Is there anyway to just "shut " off the stupid thing. I hate some of the "warning" lights/chimes I have to deal with when offroad.
