The TTPMS consist of the following components:
• Trailer Receiver Module
• Trailer Interface Module
• Two to twelve tire pressure monitoring sensors dependingon 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 “Multimedia” for
further information.

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.

184 SAFETY
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.
Trailer Sensors Detected Do Not Match Active Trailer
The “Trailer Sensors Detected Do Not Match Active Trailer”
message will be displayed in the Instrument Cluster when
the trailer sensors being received by the TTPM module do
match the trailer sensors paired to the current trailer number
selected. This message will be displayed when the sensors
being received completely match the sensors paired to
another trailer number configured in the TTPM module.
To correct this condition, the correct trailer number must be
selected in the radio. Refer to the “Uconnect Settings” in
“Multimedia” for further information. Tire Fill Alert
This feature notifies the user when the placard tire pressure
is attained while inflating or deflating the tire.
The customer may choose to disable or enable the Tire Fill
Alert feature through use of the customer settings in the
radio.
NOTE:
• Only one tire can be filled at a time when using the Tire Fill
Alert system.
• The Tire Fill Alert feature cannot be entered if an existing TPM system fault is set to “active” or if the system is in
deactivation mode (if equipped).
The system will be activated when the TPM receiver module
detects a change in tire pressure. The ignition must be in the
RUN mode, with the transmission in PARK (P).
NOTE:
It is not required to have the engine running to enter Tire Fill
Alert mode.
The hazard lamps will come on to confirm the vehicle is in
Tire Fill Alert mode.

SAFETY 185
When Tire Fill Alert Mode is entered, the tire pressure
display screen will be displayed in the instrument cluster.
Operation:
• The horn will chirp to let the user know when to stopfilling the tire, when it reaches recommended pressure.
• The horn will chirp three times if the tire is over filled and will continue to chirp every five seconds if the user
continues to inflate the tire.
• The horn will chirp once again when enough air is let out to reach proper inflation level.
• The horn will also chirp three times if the tire is then under-inflated and will continue to chirp every five
seconds if the user continues to deflate the tire.
Selectable Tire Fill Alert (STFA)
The Selectable Tire Fill Alert (STFA) system is an optional
feature that is included as part of the normal Tire Fill Alert
system. The system is designed to allow the customer to
select a pressure to inflate or deflate the vehicle's front and
rear axle tires to and to provide feedback to the customer
while inflating or deflating the vehicle's tires.
In the Selectable Tire Fill Alert customer settings menu in the
radio, the customer will be able to select a pressure setting for both the front and rear axle tire pressures by scrolling
through a pressure range from XX to 15 psi in 1 psi incre
-
ments for each axle setting. XX = the vehicle’s cold placard
pressure values for the front and rear axles as shown on the
vehicle placard pressure label.
The customer may also store the pressure values chosen for
each axle in the radio as a preset pressure. The customer will
be allowed to store up to two sets of preset values in the radio
for the front and rear axle pressure values.
Once the customer selects the tire pressures for the front and
rear axles that they want to inflate or deflate to, they can
begin inflating or deflating one tire at a time.
NOTE:
The STFA system will only support inflating or deflating one
tire at a time.
The system will be activated when the TPM receiver module
detects a change in tire pressure. The ignition must be in the
RUN mode, with the transmission in PARK (P).
The hazard lamps will come on to confirm the vehicle is in
Tire Fill Alert mode.
When Tire Fill Alert Mode is entered, the tire pressure
display screen will be displayed in the instrument cluster.

186 SAFETY
Operation:
• The horn will chirp once when the selected pressure isreached to let the user know when to stop inflating or
deflating the tire.
• The horn will chirp three times if the tire is over inflated or over deflated and will continue to chirp every five seconds
if the user continues to inflate or deflate the tire.
• The horn will chirp once again when enough air is added or removed to reach proper selected pressure level.
Tire Pressure Information System (TPIS) 3500 Series
Trucks
Your vehicle may be equipped with a Tire Pressure Informa -
tion 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 components:
• 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) applica
-
tions) tire pressure values in the instrument cluster display.
If a system fault is detected, 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 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.
