Will the tpms light only come off when serviced? Is it bad that it's still on? I'm a noob to these new technologies lolz, please fill me in.

If you have the spare on... the tire is still flat and the light will stay on till you get the tire repaired/replaced and air back in it.

Do not let some jackleg remove the valve stem and replace it, when putting on a new tire... the valve stem is the pressure sensor and must now be replaced.

The spare does not have a pressure sensor... at least on my Sport/

Um, all of the wheels, spare included, on my '05 have the TPMS system installed. Did DC change the config on later model Jeeps?

Sounds like it's a donut spare dave. Probably no TPMS in one of those seeing as the inflated pressure on a donut would be considerably higher than the other four service wheel/tires.

Not in my space saver and from what Idaho said can't be added to full size. Maybe he'll chime in?

So with the tow package you get the full size spare with tpms? So how come you can't add the tpms to a full size spare? And why do some have a full size spare and not have tpms? Dealer installed "factory tow package"? I have too many questions!
