New tpms sensor won't train

[TheZombieNinja3]

So I have an 04 renegade, and had a bad tpms sensor. I ordered a new tpms sensor and got it installed. Now I know you are supposed to drive over 25mph for ten minutes. I did that, but not instead of reading 0psi, it shows blank lines for that tire. I tried to train the tpms after driving, but the new sensor won't train. It's the front right wheel. So I start at the driver front then the new one is next. But after putting the trainer magnet on it and hold it there. It does nothing then aborts the training. Any ideas here? I can't figure it out.

I had this problem! What you want to do is bring the truck to a shop that has the tire pressure sensor programmer computer and have them trigger the tire pressure sensors one at a time running the truck threw its training cycle. I learned this the hard way it took me 5 trips to my tire place to figure this one out.

There is a jeep dealer down the road from my girlfriend. I'll ask them if they can do it.

So after running around to ask the local shops no one has the programmer for the sensor. So I'm at a loss here. Any helpful thoughts?

What you should then do is contact a local tire place that installs tire pressure sensors. Also look at local tire places that do TPMS service. I found a place that does this service near you Auto Repair & Mechanic Shop Middletown, NY Port Jervis, NY Monticello, NY | Tire Discount Center.
I would give them a call.

Just make sure that they know to run it threw its training cycle and that they must trigger each sensor with the programmer like how we do it with the magnet but except with there programmer. And do not let them tell you that all you need to do is drive the jeep because just driving the truck does not work the train the sensors.

Good to know. I'm already back cause they didn't fix the issue

is it possible that you have replaced the wrong sensor, if the wheels have been rotated and the sensor has not told the tpm ecu it has moved places its possible you "think" its say the nsf when its actually the osr....i have had this numerous times in our dealership, people have been to kwik fit had tyres fitted and kwik fit cant prog the "new" sensor they had fitted, usually ends up costing more for them to have to then bring it back to us..lol we have the tool that reads the sensors on each wheel and can turn it on and off.

They got it working but in the process of doing so we discovered that I have another one going bad.
