Default can a Superchip tuner shut off TPMS?

Can a Superchip tuner shut off TPMS or just turn the alarm point down?

On your computer you should have the super Chips updater ( sc) log in and click on the updates there is a free upgrade for tpms. Off road disable and one for enable download the disable one then program the jeep. When u plug into the jeep it's under advanced options I think ( same place to adjust idle and quick tire change)
I did mine 2 weeks ago new wheels don't even have tpms sensors. Hope this helps

I got the procal by AVE for about $125 and it goes to zero (off). I was told that the superchips goes down to the low to mid teens and costs a lot more.

To clarify the process:

You can adjust the TPMS threshold on the first hookup to the vehicle, but to be able to turn TPMS off entirely...

You need to do the first connect to the vehicle so the Superchips can verify your stock program (installed options, etc.) and then hook the Superchips to the computer. At that point you'll be abe to use the updater to install the Off road Package which lets you disable TPMS. There will be a pop-up with a waiver you have to acknowledge to install it, but you should be all set after that.

I got the AEV Procal and shut it off for a lot less than the Superchip.
