2010 Dodge Caravan TPMS

I have 2010 caravan with a bad Tire pressure monitor sensor thanks to the owners son at a out of town tire shop. Apparently hw was a little rough installing the valve stem. Anyhow Now the low tire light will not go off. All pressures have been checked and rechecked over a period of days. If I buy a new sensor at NAPA and have a local tire shop install will there be any relearn process with a scan tool or will the van's computer recognize the new sensor. Thanks
 
Did a little research online about this, no real conclusive answers though.

What I did see was there are different frequencies of wheel transmitters. You will need to know the frequency, which should be written on the transmitter.

Some of the info I found said it would self learn after a few minutes of driving. Some said it would have to be programed. Possibly a difference in year models.

I would think any reputable tire shop would have the answer, and the equipment if required.
 
On the 2006 Chrysler it learned in about 10 to 15 minutes of driving. Daughter had one and that is how it worked. The Odyssey it takes less time. Had a 2006, 2012 and a 2015.
 

I should have said the life span of a sensor it 5 to 7 years replace all of them. Have someone that has the equipment to read them and get the correct parts are the ability to program replacements...

Suck it up are deal with the light on... I have invested heavenly in TPMS tooling/diagnostics I don't give it away but some shops do... Shop around....

TPMS are a test before you touch deal... Skip the test and you are gonna eat crow...
 
You should be able to replace just one. That's what we did one my sons 11 Altima. On my 08 Silverado, I have summer and winter tires and wheels. Summer is factory sensors, winter is after market sensors. When I change the wheels, I have to follow the procedure in the owners manual for the system to relearn the sensors.
 
No relearning on ours when I put the snow tires on. Switch rims and all and never any issues with completely different tpms's

I should add. We have a 2010 town and country. Last year I bought a set of rims off a 2008 caravan with junk tires on for snow tires. Atleast one of those was replaced according to the guy I bought them from. Most shops around here charge $50 or better for one of those. Rock auto has them cheapest that I've seen.

I picked up a set of barely used snow tires and had the local shop mount them for me.

(quoted from post at 06:59:42 07/14/17) On the 2006 Chrysler it learned in about 10 to 15 minutes of driving.

That would be the alternate method for a 2010 using a direct replacement if you did not have a TPMS tool to load the sensor info into the car thru the OBD port.

It could have a 315 are a 433 NHz he would need to know which one it uses... The NHz will be on the sensor are use a TPMS tool to scan one to get the NHz...

There are four basic sensors that cover 95% of the market.

Two 315
One is a snap in and one a clamp

Two 433
One is a Snap in and one a clamp in

Snap in and clamp in can be used in either application are interchangeable.
 
Chrysler's will relearn themselves after driving. You'll need to have a tpms tool to know which one(s) have failed. $25 is a pretty low estimate. A reputable tire shop is the best plan.
