2018 Ram 1500 TPMS

tion, the graphic in the instrument cluster
will still display a pressure value in a differ-
ent color.
• After driving the vehicle for up to 20 min- utes above 15 mph (24 km/h), the TPM
Telltale Light will flash on and off for
75 seconds and then remain on solid. In
addition, the instrument cluster will display
a "SERVICE TPM SYSTEM" message for a
minimum of five seconds and then display
dashes (- -) in place of the pressure value.
• For each subsequent ignition switch cycle, a chime will sound, the TPM Telltale Light
will flash on and off for 75 seconds and
then remain on solid, and the instrument
cluster will display a "SERVICE TPM SYS-
TEM" message for a minimum of five sec-
onds and then display dashes (- -) in place
of the pressure value.
•
Once you repair or replace the original road
tire and reinstall it on the vehicle in place of
the non matching full size spare or compact
spare, the TPMS will update automatically.
In addition, the TPM Telltale Light will turn
OFF and the graphic in the instrument clus-
ter will display a new pressure value instead
of dashes (- -), as long as no tire pressure is below the low-pressure warning limit in any
of the four active road tires. The vehicle may
need to be driven for up to 20 minutes above
15 mph (24 km/h) in order for the TPMS to
receive this information.
Tire Pressure Information System (TPIS)
3500 Series Trucks
Your vehicle may be equipped with a Tire
Pressure Information System (TPIS).
The Tire Pressure Information System (TPIS)
uses wireless technology with wheel rim
mounted electronic sensors to transmit tire
pressure levels. Sensors mounted to each
wheel as part of the valve stem transmit tire
pressure readings to the receiver module.
NOTE:
It is particularly important for you to check
the tire pressure in all of the tires on your
vehicle monthly and to maintain the proper
pressure.
The TPIS consists of the following compo-
nents:
• Receiver module
• Four TPM sensors (Single Rear Wheel
(SRW) applications)
• Six TPM sensors (Dual Rear Wheel (DRW) applications)
• Pressure display in the instrument cluster
The TPIS system will display all four (Single
Rear Wheel (SRW) applications) or six (Dual
Rear Wheel (DRW) applications) tire pressure
values in the instrument cluster display.
If a system fault is detected, the instrument
cluster will display a "SERVICE TPM SYS-
TEM" message for a minimum of five seconds
and then display dashes (- -) in place of the
pressure value to indicate which sensor is not
being received.
If the ignition switch is cycled, this sequence
will repeat, providing the system fault still
exists. If the system fault no longer exists, the
"SERVICE TPM SYSTEM" message will no
longer be displayed, and a pressure value will
display in place of the dashes. A system fault
can occur due to any of the following:
•
Signal interference due to electronic devices
or driving next to facilities emitting the same
radio frequencies as the TPM sensors.
