Okay so i have a 2016 ram 1500. I just bought some new rims and tires for it (posted in another thread). Anyways, the new tires and rims came pre-mounted/ balanced and with TPMS sensors. From what i saw online i was told i needed to go get these "flashed/ associated" with my vehicle. So i installed me rims and tires the other day and drove around town with no issues. I had no code lights on or error messages. I was shocked, so i checked the vehicle info and checked the tire pressure reading and they were all reading in the upper 30's. I was thinking that maybe it was just still reading my stock rim/tires pressures and hadnt figured out they were gone yet. So flash forward to today when i get in my truck and my error light is no now saying my tires are reading 32, 32, 33, 36. Im like okay thats weird. So i go to the gas station to check the tires and sure enough the tire gauge is reading those exact things. I filled my tires up some to 42 PSI (what i saw recommended online) and i check my vehicle info again and now all my tires are reading 42.
So am i crazy? or did my vehicle some how manage to learn the new TPMS without me having to get them "flashed"? Or is my truck playing games with me? Help? Maybe? anyone ever had new rims/ tires put on with TPMS ?
