Had lift done, as well as wheel/tire upgrades.

My installer went with new sensors. I left OEM ones in stock tires, which I’ve since sold.

Upon install, my rear sensors didn’t register on TPMS read out.

I’ve driven well over 100 miles, still no change.

Took my Jeep back, and ordered new OEM sensors. Installed...still not registering.

Anybody experience the same and/or have a fix?

Was told that I may need a factory reset to correct issue.

Thanks!

I've done several Jeeps and just finished my first JL. Had a similar problem on a 17 JK. I would get the new tired rotated and see if the problem stays in the rear. If it stays in the rear then it's probably not a sensor issue. Also they can test the sensors and see if they put out a signal.
I'd try disconnecting the battery (negative cable) then drive it for 5-10 miles and monitor the TPMS.

I’ll ask my guy if he tried any/all of that.

Maybe try installing a programmer like Flashcal or Tazer and turn TPMS off then reboot then turn it back on and have it relearn.

Could...but I'm passing on Tazer/Flashcal programmers.

Some have said that disconnecting the batteries will force a reset but from my understanding the JL is supposed to learn the existing OEM or new TPMS sensors within a short period of time so not sure how to correct, maybe take it to the dealer but I’m guessing since it involves aftermarket parts it won’t be covered under warranty
