2007 Jeep / 2008 T&C TPMS

I have two new vehicles with Tire Pressure Monitor Systems, 2007 Jeep Compass and a 2008 Chrysler Town & Country. When I rotate the tires how to I reset the wheel location for the tire pressure monitoring system. The owners manual doesn't seem to discuss wheel location changes.



Thanks Kevin


I don't think you have to do anything.

so... how does the system know where the tire is?

That's a hard one.

the older ones used a magnet. The newer ones havea code that can be done with the DRBIII scantool.I have heard that after the vehicle sits for about 4hours (key out) the vehicle will attempt to relearnwhere the wheels are. Since it's a new version I'd just call the dealership and ask.

I believe it just monitors each tire at each location. Doesn't track track them when rotated.

The only thing the manual actually does say is they use the same receiver as the key fob.

the magnet was for calibration IRRC.

Do you have any info you can see on your instrument panel? On my GM, I can reset the tire monitor from the dash.

I think Ford has something like that too.

I would assume Chrysler would have something similar.
