I just swapped some 2020 beadlock wheels on my 2017 Raptor and they lose synch after about 15 mins of driving. I don't know if the trucks picking up the old sensors when I leave the house (they're in the garage about 20 ft from the truck) or if they synch and then drop. Do I need to go to a tire shop with the synch remote to retrain them? Even on longer trips with stops where I turn the truck off, it doesn't pick them up again. I read on Gen 2s you usually just drive around and the truck figures it out, but I'm not having that luck

I've run multiple year rims/tpms on my Gen 2 and never did anything, they just started working. If you bought takeoff rims/tires are your sure they didn't remove the sensors?

This /\, should be no need for anything AS LONG AS the frequency of the TPMS sensors to truck are the same. Which I'm fairly certain my 2020 are 315mhz and the earlier Gen 2s are something different.

Are the legit beadlocks? I have the same problem. I think it might be due to all the grade 8 hardware. Beed running like this for almost 2 months.

I’ve ran 2 sets of beadlocks and never had that problem. Although I program them.

They're the factory beauty rings, I tried synching them this am by starting the tpms synch and then deflating tires until i got a honk to move to the next one. I got both drivers side tires synched but not the passenger sides. I took it to goodyear before work and they had the same result with the TPMS remote. I think I've got 2 dead sensors, which sucks because I bought these as take offs with 40 miles on them that have been sitting in the sellers garage.

I ran into this problem with my 2018 F150 I had before my Raptor when I swapped in some 2020 Raptor wheels on it. They switched sensors somewhere between 2018 and 2019. Different part numbers. Might want to look into that.
