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 procedure; “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 unsuccessful. Under certain circum -
stances, 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. Trailer Tire Pressure Monitoring System Low
Pressure Warnings
When a low tire pressure 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.

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 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 its
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 TTPMS instrument cluster graphic
when a trailer number is selected that has not had
trailer tire pressure sensors paired Ú
page 199.
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 TTPMS 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 TTPMS module.
To correct this condition, the correct trailer number
must be selected in the radio Ú page 199.
System Limitations
The TTPMS may have difficulty transmitting
through steel-walled tires or on trailers longer than
30 ft. It is recommended to use standard tires and
trailers less than 30 ft long to avoid dropouts or
difficulty when pairing.
NOTE:The vehicle may not be driven until the pairing
process is complete.

Tire Pressure Information System (TPIS)
3500/4500/5500 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 components:
Receiver module
Four TPMS sensors (Single Rear Wheel (SRW)
applications)
Six TPMS sensors (Dual Rear Wheel (DRW)
applications)
Pressure display in the instrument cluster
The TPIS 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 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.
