Hi all. Just took delivery of a factory order 2021 3500 DRW. I optioned for the trailer TPMS. Does anyone know if the actual sensors that go in the trailer tires are supposed to come with the truck? Or do you have to buy them separate?

Check your bins under the mat on the back seat floor . Should be in there.

Yes, they should come with the truck if that's an option on the sticker. I just took delivery on mine a few weeks ago and they were in the back seat with my other accessories like my hitch adapter and AUX wiring. Easiest thing to do would be to talk to you dealer.

Did the sticker say sensors specifically? Mine has Trailer Tire Pressure Monitoring System $345. Just trying to clarify so I can talk to my dealer.

All my sticker said was "Trailer Tire Pressure Monitoring" for $345. Last item on the sticker. It doesn't mention the sensors specifically but every truck I test drove that had that feature installed from the factory had the sensors in the back seat. That's how I knew to look for it when I received my truck.

The option comes with the kit with 4 sensors 68433188AA .

Make the dealer find them if you've gone through the truck and they're missing.

You should also have a 2.5" to 2" receiver reducer. Did you look inside that?

I had the same question and the dealership wasn't sure. Neither was I because looking at the cost of ordering 4 sensors, $345 is cheap to have the system turned on too. But yes, per Ram you get 4 sensors. Mine were in the rear underseat storage.

The biggest cost single item in that $345 option is the 4-sensor kit.

The other parts are retail (discounted) around $150 total

PARTS REQUIRED TO ADD TTPMS to 2019+ RAM HD TRUCKS:
  • TTPMS bumper receiver: 68375990AC (Avg cost ~$70)
  • TIM headliner module: 68404893AB (Avg cost ~$70)
  • TIM Pigtail cable: 68412666AA (Avg cost ~$9)
  • The kit for the TPMS sensors (4) for trailer wheels is 68433188AA (best price I've seen posted not too far back in the thread @ $146)
    • Optional single sensors available as part #68375992AA

I'm going based on the Mopar Catalog since we are comparing to what Ram charges for the option - one would assume FCA coordinates those prices. List price on 1 sensor is $78.45 * 4 = $313.80. $345 seemed kind of low to include additional hardware and the very expensive privilege of having a sales code enabled.

All I can say is that that's the price the TTPMS option has been since available and everyone that ordered it from the factory has received the sensors.

If you add up the discounted prices for the parts listed, which many of us have added to our trucks, it's very close to the option price.

Wish.......I could program my Flagstaff sensors to work with the new truck when it comes. Just a wish....not really necessary but would be a nice feature.

Mine weren't in my truck upon delivery, but I notified dealer and they have ordered them for me (no addition charge because they should have been with the truck).

Dealer gave me my TPMS sensors in a bag with manuals and spare key fob. Grille cover (cold weather package, 2.5" to 2" reducer sleeve and tailgate plug were in the left rear under seat bin.
