    I got 4 new Orange Elctronics sensors...SC36AA.
    Took about 20 minutes for all 4 to read, then all 4 dropped out, and the next day only 1 of them reads. Really frustrating...

    That's why I'm not running TPMS sensors and have the off road feature of the Flashpaq enabled.

    Gotta admit... Chrysler TPMS is screwed up. I have mine turned off now, don't plan on turning it back on.

    My GM truck had 3 different TPMS manufacturer's sensors installed and never missed a beat. Not sure what Chrysler does to make it suck so much... it's not really any special technology...

    Well you have a better setup than mine since you have the Hemi with more options. You could actually see the psi in each individual tire. On my jeep the light would come on if a tire was low but didnt tell you which one.

    True... thats what I liked about mine. Hopefully Chrysler gets their crap together so the new rubber stems work like they're supposed to. Aluminum stems on offroad vehicles suck... seen too many break on the trails.

    I havent checked in a while to see if there were any TSBs to address the new sensors. Might have to check into that again.
