Yeah, I thought I might try to do that if you wanted some help with your bumper install. I thought I would reprgram wih Hypertech for just performance and then do your procal for tire size and TPMS, as long as you dont mind

Bumper is supposed to ship tomorrow. I'll let you know when it comes in and we can do everything at once.

Don't think it will let you use a procal on another jeep unless you uninstall it off the original.

Default Over a year now

Put new wheels and tires on over a year ago now. I know because i did it myself that there are no sensors in all five of my wheels. no procal, no superchips, and never plugged in to have it changed. My light has never come on, not even once. I origionally thought that it would be on the second I started the Jeep after the install. It hasn't even been to the dealer since I do all the maintence myself. I would just have to assume that the computer recognizes that the sensors are not there. just my two cents.

Are they seeing the sensors in the old tires in the garage once each day and that is enough to keep the light off?

No. When the vehicle moves the sensors start reporting pressure and keep eporting pressure until the whels stop. After the wheels have stopped for 20 minutes the sensors shut down and stop reporting pressure.

I think I'm going have to chip my jeep as peeping and light is driving me crazy. Been 5 months now with no sensors installed. Can't believe a vehicle like a jeep can't by-pass this feature
