Last nite when I got in the Jeep, the Tire Pressure monitor was on. Checked pressures, all are at 30#. So, today, I took out the FlashPak, re-set to the monitor pressure to 28#. Light is still on, after turning the key back on. Now have aired up the tires to 35#. Haven't driven or checked the dash light yet. Any thoughts on anything else if this don't shut off the light - besides piece of black tape over the indicator?

I put 35# air in the tires, light is off now. Am kinda thinking...(almost hurts) the FlashPak had other settings I think, Trail? maybe? Some way to effectively shut it off? May look into that later, &/or set the monitor to the min. of 26# that it looks like it will go.... Then I maybe can run tires down a but more. Still beats the bejevies outa ya... Which don't bother me anyway. Used to "Lumber-Wagon" ride.

I had my 08 JK (2-dr) Rubi at dealer last week (for other things) - and light was on from wheeling - I have stock tires and was told 35# isn't enough - has to be at 37# for light to be off - if over 40# it will come on also. I had aired up to 35# after wheeling and it wasn't enough.

Weird scratch the sticker in my door jam says stock tire pressure should be set to 35 psi study

That's what mine are set and and no lights when set to 33-36 psi. With the flash pak, you should be able to adjust the tire pressure lower. Sounds like it didn't take the settings.

yeah - i think mine says 35# also - but at 35 it wouldn't go off - so that's what the dealer told me! Whatever the case - the 37# works

I had mine come on after buying it, (next day) and they did an "update" on it at the dealer. Hasn't come on since...

You can use the flashpaq to disable the feature all together. I tossed the TPMS sensors when I went to beadlocks.... no more of that nonsense.
