If I replace my tpms with new ones do i need to have the dealer program the new sensors to the truck?

Yes- That works too. I chose to sell my stock tires/wheels with the sensors still in them. Call it marketing...Can you not just switch the ones from your stock wheels into the new ones??
If you plan on a 5-tire rotation, I can see this argument. Otherwise, itās kind of a waste. When you get the original flat repaired or replaced, it goes back into service with a working sensor. The light would serve as a reminder to get your other tire repaired.For everyoneās info I bought a new spare wheel to match the other 4 as the spare on all 4 models in just a generic black steel wheel. When the tire store put the tire onto my new wheel they noted that there was no tire monitor on the spare wheel. So now I have to go back to the dealership to get a tire monitor and get it put on to my spare.
So if anyone gets a flat then I am willing to bet you that your car will instantly give you a warning that your spare is out of air or that itās not getting a reading on that tire. Call it being cheap or call it sheer stupidity! Take your pick. Ya might want to get a monitor added to your spare before you get a flat.
Would you mind posting a link or the pn for the ones you purchased?No, as long as you buy the correct part, your Jeep will detect the signal as you drive. I bought a set off of eBay and they work just fine.

I donāt have a link to the exact ones, and I have not reverified the part number, but they were very similar (if not identical) to these.Would you mind posting a link or the pn for the ones you purchased?
Hi Jake,I can post a picture of my fifth sensor for my spare on Saturday. Dealership gets my sensor tomorrow. And I go back to the dealership this Saturday to have them put on my step bars and to install my tire pressure monitor sensor for my spare tire. Will snap a picture of it before they install it.
