2019 Ram 3500 TPMS

SAFETY 225

• For each subsequent ignition switch cycle, a chime willsound, 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 SYSTEM" message for
a minimum of five seconds and then display dashes (- -) in
place of the pressure value.

• Once you repair or replace the original road tire and rein -
stall it on the vehicle in place of the non matching full size
spare or compact spare, the TPMS will update automati -
cally. In addition, the TPM Telltale Light will turn OFF and
the graphic in the instrument cluster 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.
Trailer Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TTPMS)
The Trailer Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TTPMS) is a
feature that will display the trailer tire pressure values and
warn the driver of a low trailer tire pressure, based on the
drivers set target tire pressure value, through the Instrument
Cluster (IC). The TTPMS monitors the pressure of each tire and warns the
driver, through the IC, when either a low tire pressure condi
-
tion or a TPM sensor or system malfunction condition exists.
The IC will display the actual tire pressure or dashes for each
of the trailer tires in the correct trailer position, based on
trailer configuration.
The TTPMS consist of the following components:
• Trailer Receiver Module
• Trailer Interface Module
• Two to twelve tire pressure monitoring sensors depending on trailer configuration
The TTPMS is configured though the trailer settings menu in
the Uconnect system by selecting the desired trailer number
(up to four trailers can be configured), the number of axles (1
- 3), the number of trailer tires (2, 4, 6, 8, or 12), and the set
trailer tire pressure. Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multi -
media” for further information.

226 SAFETY
Tire Pressure Monitoring Low Pressure Warnings
When a tire pressure low in one or more of the active road
tires is detected a chime will sound. In addition, the instru-
ment cluster will display a graphic showing the pressure
values of each tire with the low tire pressure values in a
different color. An “Inflate to XXX” message will also be
displayed.
NOTE:
"XXX" = TPM trailer tire target pressure value programmed
by the customer
Should this occur, you should stop as soon as possible and
inflate the tires with a low pressure condition (those in a
different color in the instrument cluster graphic) to the
customer programmed target tire pressure value as shown in
the “Inflate to XXX” message. Once the system receives the
updated tire pressures, the system will automatically update
the graphic display in the instrument cluster will return to
it’s original color. The vehicle may need to be driven for up
to 10 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h) in order for the
TTPMS to receive the updated information.Service TTPMS Warning
If a system fault is detected, the system fault will sound a
chime and the instrument cluster will display a “Trailer Tire
Pressure System Service Required” 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.
Once the system fault is corrected the "Trailer Tire Pressure
System Service Required" message will no longer be
displayed and the dashes will be replaced by pressure
values. The vehicle may need to be driven for up to
10 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h) in order for the TTPMS
to receive the updated information.
Trailer Tire Pressure System Not Configured
A “Trailer Tire Pressure System Not Configured” message
will be displayed in the Instrument Cluster when a trailer
number is selected that does not have configuration values
entered for the (Number of Tires, Number of Axles, SET
Target Tire Pressure, trailer TPM sensor ID's).
To correct this condition the (Number of Tires, Number of
Axles, and SET Target Tire Pressure) values must be entered
in the radio for the trailer number selected. The trailer
sensors must also be paired to the trailer. Refer to the “Ucon -
nect Settings” in “Multimedia” for further information.
