    New 5500 owner, TPMS advise

    It is possible for me to just enable it in the EVIC using AlfaOBD and see what happens? Perhaps that’s the easier way forward rather than arguing with the dealer. I’m half tempted to tell the dealer that I want it repaired under warranty since it’s a ”standard feature” that is not currently...

    Okay, so a bit of an update. I’ve been in contact with my dealer. They claim that they asked around to their service department and sales department and “everyone is stumped” and they‘ve never known chassis cabs to come with TPIS. They also claim that they are contacting their rep to see what...

    Sadly, I do not have the tire pressure screen in that menu. I actually took a video of me scrolling through the menu and sent it to my dealer as they asked the same thing.

    I did contact the dealer today and they are looking into it. They seem confused as well based on the information available online. I have a feeling they’re going to say something like “your truck wasn’t optioned with that” but it’s worth a try. I’m not too sure how hard to push on it. It wasn’t...

    I believe it’s considered the 7” version. It has a large screen in the middle with customizable gauges in all four corners as well as on either side.

    I do have the window sticker. I don't see anywhere on it about Tire Pressure monitoring (either additional / deleted). The sticker clearly says 2022 Model year RAM 5500 Chassis, SLT Crew Cab, so I think I'm going to contact the dealer and ask about why I don't seem to have it enabled or sensors...

    2023 with NO TPMS

    According to this we have TPIS (which is basically TPMS without a warning chime if there's an issue) as a factory option. This doesn't seem true though as I have no tire information screen.

    2023 with NO TPMS

    @JBoo2911 - Did you get this figured out? I have a 2022 5500 and have no screen showing tire pressures, though I thought this was a standard feature on the SLT trim level.

    I really don't care about an alert, I just want a way to verify that I don't have a low tire during long drives. I currently don't have any tire information in my EVIC, so I'm guessing I don't have sensors installed. I'm assuming that I could purchase those aftermarket, but I'm not sure if...

    Thanks @Brutal_HO! That's better news than I expected. So in theory, I could use AlfaOBD to enable TPMS and I would then get the TPMS screen in the instrument cluster? Also, if I do nothing and have TPIS, will I get a dash warning light when my pressures are low? I thought I tried this by...

    I recently purchased a ‘22 RAM 5500 which I’m going to be turning into a truck camper hauler rig. The truck was available and had pretty much all the features we wanted, but is missing tire pressure monitoring. Is there a way to add that at the dealer so it’s integrated into the instrument...

    Did RamTrucks.com remove the VIN lookup tool?

    Just looked up my 5500 and it shows a towing capacity of 23,210 lbs. That seems pretty low, but I'm not planning on towing - instead going with the big truck for payload (which is over 10k lbs).
