TPMS swap between a JK & JT

[jeramie964]

So I just bought a used 2021 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon. I took the tires and wheels off my 2015 JK and swapped them with the stock tires and wheels on the Gladiator. Now neither vehicle's computer can read the tire pressure from the TPMS'. Does anyone know with certainty if a Jeep dealer can reprogram the TPMS sensor's on each set of wheels to be read by the other vehicles without having to physically swap the TPMS'?

There was a TPMS change made sometime in June of 2021. TPMS made before the change will work on the JK, but ones made after the change will not work. So, you appear to have the later type TPMS on your JT.

My pre-June 2021 TPMS work on both my JT and JK.

Thanks for the info! Since I likely have the newer ones, do you know if the JK wheel TPMS’ can be reprogrammed to be read by my 2021 JT? And vice versa with my 2015 JK being able to be programmed to read the newer JT wheel sensors?

Nope, the computers are different and can't be reprogrammed at least on a basic level.

You cannot "program" them either way. They are on two different hardware frequency standards.

Thanks for sharing that Service Bulletin. That's awesome you were able to pull it up and post it on here.

It's a major bummer though on the wheel swap not being possible. I guess I could just pay to have the sensors swapped on all 8 wheels, but I'm not sure it'd be worth it at this point.

So I was able to resolve the TPMS issue. I took both my 15' JK and 21' Gladiator over to Discount Tire and just had them swap the original TPMS sensors over to the original vehicle. Once the sensors were swapped, I drove both Jeeps for maybe 5 miles each on the highway and both vehicles began reading their original sensors. I haven't had any issues since. My '21 Gecko Green Gladiator was built in September 2021, so it falls in line with what the service bulletin stated that was posted earlier in this thread by Hootbro. Thanks Hootbro again for posting that.
