It does not. Im not sure what would happen if you do add one. It may screw things up as there are only 3 sensor pickups and they use process of elimination to determine the 4th tire's pressure.

My tires are rotated frequently at the dealer with every oil change, including the spare. Therefore, I would suppose that the spare has a TPMS. It is an interestering questioon, so next time i'm in I will ask.

So you have a matching aluminum rim on your spare?
Was that an option?
Thought they all came with a steelie.

Stock JT from the factory, does not have a TPMS in the spare.
Thanks, I will address this with my dealer; however, when I check the dash readout (Mine is a Rubicon), it gives me the pressure in all four tires currently on the road and I know they are rotating the spare because I watched them do it. Thanks for the input....

It looks like he has the $995 optional wheels for the Rubicon.
I guess they give you 5 of them and TPMS when you choose that option?

@Ogre_FL

I was thinking that it could be that option... That is why I suggested he go and check his equipment list... I know the base JT does not ship with a matched wheel spare with TPMS.

Lets see what @Terry can find out....
This one has the same wheels.
The sticker just notes the option, nothing about if they come as 5 and all w/TPMS

What about a wrangler has the same wheel and tire on the back I’ve had my tires rotated I think it must have a TPMS sensor otherwise it would show a fault

Our Wrangler has the Wrangler optional Rubicon wheels that also cost the same $995. (so maybe it does include 5)
Yup all 5 have TPMS, but only registers when they are mounted on the axels.

All JK's/JL's have the same 5th wheel and TPMS. Most JT's come with a steel rim/no TPMS as its hidden.

This is what I found also. My 2019 JLU had a matching spare with TPMS. My 2021 JT does not.

as @Pepe said

Yes, your JT knows exactly which rim is where, usually within seconds of a tire rotation for example. Yes, It's all done automatically.

The JT, does not have a TPMS sensor in the spare, but you can add one... but it is not read by a chassis sensor/ considered by the computer until it is placed in one of the 4 tire positions.
I replaced my OEM steel spare wheel with a takeoff Gladiator OEM Charcole Rim 6KC87TRMAA and added a tire pressure sensor 68464665AB, so I could do a 5-tire rotation.

I had the 5 wheel rotation done on my Mojave, and the screen is reading 4 tires.
