Default Tire pressure monitor

I installed new tires and wheels on my 09 wrangler. Now, every time I start the vehicle, it beeps and the tire pressure monitor ligh illuminates. Then, it stays on forever.

How can i disable this so the light doesn't come on?
thanks

AEV Procal or Superchips Flashpaq have options for disabling TPMS.

These are programmers that you plug into your JK. Once you are connected you can set the tire pressure monitor to 0 lbs. This will keep the dash warning from coming on.

I'm guessing that you didn't put the tpms sensors back on your wheels.

Sorry Hombres.

Programmers such as the Superchips Flashpaq or the AEV Procal will allow you to turn off your tire pressure monitoring system.

My guess is that when you had your new tires and wheels installed they were done without the TPMS (tire pressure monitoring system) sensors installed.

Hope that helps.

Do you still have your old tires and sensors? If so, Discount Tire, or probably any other place can rebuild them into your new tires. I did it on mine, not much $$ at all.
