The 56029398AB's may work on yours it being a 2010 although they may still need activating sleep to park mode. The part no that works in mine a 2006 (after contacting Schrader/Bartec and getting them on the case) are 56029481AA they are supplied in sleep mode sometimes and need to be activated to park mode to make them work. I think Doug is going to get his 56029398AB's checked when he can as a last resort before he gives up on them to make sure they are activated ie in park mode. The ones on mine which were sent to me in park mode via Schrader/Bartec started working after about a mile. I am waiting to hear from Bartec on a price and availabilty of the 56029481AA's here in the UK.

Ok thanks for that ,my next question is how do you know if they are in Park mode? before you install them would be a good time to check but! then knowing Chrysler they won't be able to tell us anything .Also yes I did get mine from Wheels1 so Iam hoping they will work in my car. Thanks for the feed back.
Cheers

You would need the programming tool i suspect. There is no way of knowing other than fitting them and seeing if they work. I was tallking to my mate who runs the motorcycle shop opposite where i have my tyres done while i was having my new sensors fitted and he said they had a BMW bike in which they fitted a TPMS sensor to needless to say it didnt work so he popped it up to a car repair shop further on up the estate and they activated it for him by his words "just waving the tool by the valve". So these tools are about at garages they are only a small outfit but they had the kit to do the job!

I got the email from wheels 1 that said that i need to add air to the tyre and that will activate my TMPS then after driving the car for 20 mins it will reset. I hope that helps a bit I know the earlier model 300c used a 317mhz not the current 433mhz used since 2010 world wide as they have finally made the universal Valve at 433 mhz since 2010 for world wide distribution.

Guys
Kind regards
Geoff and good luck hope you get yours sorted. I know its a bloody headache

Are UK ones not all the same at 433mhz? and 317 for the US.

Yes you're right Tim the UK ones have always been 433Mhz i suspect the Aus ones are to being built at the same place

all the 315 versions have stopped - they were only US early models

It turns out according to my man that above 115mph there is a possibility of "slight" air loss he is also trying to get Schrader to give us a good deal on these more to follow

[Kaiser Bill]

I have no doubt its a bottom covering excercise.... the difference between these & rubber valves is negligible. Also, theyre now touting these as universal fitment - I cant see them surviving in a market limited to 115 - everything in Germany would be off the road!

From what I have read all the new models 2011 up even in the USA now run 433MHZ as well in stead of the 317Mhz, about time these were made too be universal around the world to save a lot of worry lol. I have ordered a new set of Foose Black Legend SS wheels in 20 x 9 to replace my Leaxani LSS10 22x 10 and 22x9 wheels that I have had on both cars. So I bought a new set of 4 TPMS Valves on ebay shop ( Wheel1 x) for $90.90 AUD posted to Australia.A great pricee as I saved heaps, the dealers wanted $180.00 AUD each.

I'm also looking at Importing wheels from the USA as there is a far greater choice

I have the same car as you a 5.7 HEMI ( 2007 ) So took a look at the wheels you've ordered
Foose Legend SS Black.....They don't do a 20 x 9 only 22x9..

Let me know how you get on with them....I must say I like the look of the Legend SS chromes on 20x8.5
shame they don't do a 20x10 in 5x115 bolt pattern....would have looked nice staggered

I know what you are saying about the 20x 9 but!! my tyre guy here told me they make both 20x8.5 and 20x 9 so I will double check tomorrow and get back to you in regards too this as I was surprised when he told me he ordered 20x 9. So now I will call him in the morning.
