- 2018 wrangler Rubicon unlimited
You seem to be pretty knowledgeable on this topic as I have seen you reply on several thread, but nothing that directly addresses the issue I am having. Since this is my first wrangler I am really in the dark on this and thinking you/ someone may be able to shed some light.
I got a flat the other day and I switched that tire with the factory mounted spare. I mounted the flat back in the spare position after plugging the screw hole and inflated it back up to see if the repair held. After a couple days of monitoring PSI she looks good. Now, I have a dash light for low pressure in the rear passenger, where I had the flat (happens to be where I put the spare). I know the pressure is right because I have checked it several times. The dealer told me I have the warning message because the system is still picking up the PSI from the original tire that is mounted in the spare position, but that makes no sense to me. Called a tire shop and they told me its because the spare doesn't have a sensor in it to read PSI so the computer is registering the last known number. Any information would be great, just trying to learn.
Same issue, I suspected what the dealer said to you and took the tire with the bad reading off the jeep so that it is not sensed at all and see if it will "unpair" that wheel and see the wheel that was in the spare position and is now installed. WIll find out if it works on the road tomorrow.
