SAFETY137
Trailer Tire Pressure Sensor Pairing
In order use this feature, the provided tire pres -
sure sensors must be installed in the desired
trailer tires and the sensors must be paired to
the truck. If the target trailer requires more than
the provided four sensors, additional sensors
can be purchased at an authorized Ram dealer -
ship.
With the sensors installed and the trailer near
or connected to your Ram truck, initiate the
pairing process by entering the settings menu in
the radio and select trailer. Refer to “Uconnect
Settings” in “Multimedia” for further informa -
tion. Select the desired trailer profile to pair to,
open the “Tire Pressure” menu, and hit “Setup
All Tires.” Follow the on screen prompts to select the
number of axles (1 - 3), the number of trailer
tires (2, 4, 6, 8, or 12), and the set trailer tire
pressure. The range is selectable anywhere
between 25-125 PSI (172-862 kPa).
Once PSI (kPa) is programmed, the pairing
screen appears. Tire sensors must be paired in
order shown. Starting with Tire 1, deflate tire by
5 PSI (34 kPa) and wait for a horn chirp. It may
take up to three minutes for the chirp to occur,
indicating that the sensor has paired. Repeat
process on each tire, in order, until complete.
Do not exit the pairing screen until process is
complete. If pairing was unsuccessful, a double
horn chirp will sound, and a prompt on the touchscreen will allow you to retry the proce
-
dure; “Retry” will only appear when setup fails.
Each tire must be successfully paired during a
single pairing process to receive the success
screen.
NOTE:
If the pairing process times out after three
minutes of no communication with a sensor, a
double horn chirp will occur indicating the
pairing has failed and a message will display on
the radio indicating the process was unsuc -
cessful. Under certain circumstances, the
double horn chirp may continue to happen
every three minutes indicating the failed
pairing. If this happens, the horn chirping may
be canceled by cycling the ignition button OFF
and then back to ON/RUN position.
Tire Pres sure Monitoring Lo w Pre ssure
Warnings
When a tire pressure low in one or more of the
active road tires is detected, the instrument
cluster will display a message stating “Trailer
Tire Pressure Low”. The instrument cluster will
then display the TTPMS graphic showing the
pressure values of each tire with the low tire
pressure values in a different color.

138SAFETY
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 instru -
ment cluster graphic) to the customer
programmed target tire pressure value as
shown at the top of the TTPMS instrument
cluster graphic. Once the tire(s) are inflated, the
system will automatically update the graphic
display in the instrument cluster, returning 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 instrument
cluster will display a “Trailer Tire Pressure
System Service Required” message for a
minimum of five seconds.
Once the system fault is corrected the "Trailer
Tire Pressure System Service Required"
message will no longer be displayed. 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 trailer tire pressure
information. Trailer Tire Pressure System Not Configured
A “Trailer Tire Pressure System Not Configured”
message will be displayed in the Instrument
Cluster on the TTPM instrument cluster graphic
when a trailer number is selected that has not
had trailer tire pressure sensors paired. To
correct this condition, see “Trailer Tire Pressure
Sensor Pairing” in “Multimedia”.
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 not
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 — If Equipped
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 pres -
sure. 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.
