Default Tpms light

Recently got 35s on my JKU...and at times the TPMS light goes on when driving local. About 1 mile into highway driving the light goes away...once I hit local, after about 10-15 minutes of driving the TPMS light comes back on. Has anyone had this issue?

I recently had a shop mount and balance 35's and put new TPMS sensors in them (bought all online) and my jeep is registering none of them. Just -- for each wheel.

I had the oem sensors swapped. Whenever on the highway sensor light goes away, about 10 miles local it comes back. Odd.

I'm thinking the air in the tires is warming up on the highway, increasing the air pressure enough to satisfy the sensor. A few miles of slower driving and the air cools enough to lower the pressure. I would try increasing the tire pressure a little at a time to experiment. Have you done the chalk test?

I run 28 pounds in my 35s. That would set the sensors off. I used a programmer to lower the threshold in the computer to prevent it.
