Adding trailer tpms

[kevin588127]

I have a 22 2500 big horn with the 8" screen. I'd like to add trailer tpms. I have alfa obd. Wondering if anyone has a part number for a kit that has everything I would need to install. I think I've found the 4 pack of wheel sensors but think I may also need a sensor that plugs in somewhere at the bumper of the truck. Anyone done this and be able to share the P/N?

There is are several threads on this. Do a search. It may or not work for you.

TPMS (TIS) sensors for trailer (SOLVED - see 1st post) aka TTPMS - Trailer TPMS

Has anyone bought/installed the tire pressure sensors on a towed trailer that can be viewed on the driver information center after being configured in the UConnect? Specifically for the 3500. I am looking for the part number for the sensor. I've tried a couple of dealers and yesterday chatted...

Thanks, I'd found that thread and read through several pages. Didn't think to look at the first (edited) post, lol. Props to whomever did the edit on the first post, it seems to have everything I needed

There *may* be a new P/N for the wheel sensors...

If someone can provide I can update the sticky again.

New sensor kit part number (4 sensors) is 68516743AA. This replaces discontinued part number 68433188AA.

Hopefully the new part numbers emit a stronger signal than the original sensors.

I was able to find the new sensors towards the end of the thread. Hoping they work with my trailer. My axles are only about 17' from the rear bumper

I just did this and bought everything listed on the 1st page (and the newer P/N on the wheel sensors)
All the instructions are pretty spot on... there is *a lot* less room in the headliner than the pics lead you to believe.

Save your data before messing with Alfa, make both changes and you should be good go!
I still have a month to go before I pick up our TT and can actually program the TTPMS.

FWIW, I bought everything through BAMWholesaleparts... prices are decent and shipping isn't stupid (which is where it seems most places gank you).

What are people paying to get the sensors installed in their tires? I ordered the new truck with TTPMS and so far I'm getting quoted at like $25 per tire. That seems high to me, but I don't have anything to compare to.

$25 doesn't seem to be far off from what I've seen/heard for installation/remounting.

 

[kevin588127]

Mine is going to discount tire to have new tires put on. I'll have them do the sensors then. They charge 22 bucks per tire. I believe to do sensors, the tire may have to be dismounted and remounted.

Ok, glad to hear some confirmation that those prices are reasonable. Thanks all.
