Will the Autel MaxiTPMS TS508WF fix this?

[jukelemon]

Hi all.


Hoping someone can chime on this...

Early build 2021 Sahara Unlimited

Issue: a few days ago I put on a set of stock 2020 JLUR wheels with brand new Kumho AT52s. Stock sensors in the Rubi wheels. Per the owner they were working fine. When I put all 5 on, three of the four pressures/sensors registered on the Jeep/display. DR did not.

Went to 3 shops.

Shop 1 - read all 5 sensors transmitting at 433 but did not have the tool to resolve it in the Jeeps ECU

Shop 2 - referred to by Shop 1. Big box tire shop. Read all 5 like Shop 1 but only had the ability to do up to 2019 Jeeps

Shop 3 -dealer and just left there. They said they cannot read any of them (odd) and would have to take off a tire to resolve it/be able to reprogram. Waited 1.5 hrs to tell me that.

On the way home from the dealer, the display went down to 1 of four tires being read

Soo...can I resolve this with the TS508? Do I need a 12-8 adapter I keep reading about?

Thanks all!

I had this problem a while back. You say early model 2021? Before June 7th? You're probably out of luck. Mine looked fine when I installed them and disappeared one at a time over a few days, I think it was the old tire readings still stuck in there because of no updates. If your last one goes away pretty soon, you're probably in the same boat.
I got the TS508 and could not fix it. Tire shop said they couldn't get the right sensor so I got these:

Since I already had the 508, programmed them very easily and had the tire shop (Discount Tire, I think you have them in the 'Ville, great guys) switch them out for like $15 each. They don't have to remove and rebalance, just break the bead and reach in and grab it.
Hope this helps!

Edit: No wait, this is wrong. Just read your post again. Unless your Jeep was build AFTER June 7th, those should be the same sensors. If you still have the old tires, I would try to have someone read one of those sensors to see what it is. Sorry to not be helpful after all

Thanks man and yes...the sensors should be identical on both wheels and tire sets. I got the 2020 JLUR set for this exact reason.

The 508 is coming today so I will report back.

No luck on the 508

So back to the dealer I guess.

The 508 picked up all the sensors including spare but could not write them to the ECU. Odd.
