TTPMS

My 2021 Ram 2500 with factory tow package, UCONNECT 12" feature shows trailer brake options but I can't find the trailer tire monitoring option, can I add this feature. Or do I have to go aftermarket. TIA

TTPMS is an option. We did figure out how to add.

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...

Keep in mind the factory doesn't offer temperature, or any sort of disconnect feature (I tow doubles) so you may still want to go aftermarket.

After adding it to my truck, I decided to just stick with my existing Tireminder setup.

Same here, lack of temperature monitoring was a deal breaker for me. Definitely not worth the $500 option when Amazon is full of monitors that will provide better options.

I'd consider if they were doing what Chevy/GMC has.

I think the diagram is behind my spare on the frame?

What?

Please look at the first post in the thread I linked.

It has a list of ALL the parts required.

You would also need an AlfaOBD setup to code the settings.

Am i seeing this correctly? The sensors just screw on the stems? I have 4 dual axle trailers and if thats how these work i am getting them much better than putting the sensors and stems in the tires for all 12 tires lol

All the aftermarket setups offer either in-stem or add-on.

My TireMinder smart app kit came with screw on sensors.

Metal stems are recommended, but not required for pressures up to 80PSI.

You also need to use either brass or aluminum sensors to match your stems to avoid galvanic corrosion.

I like the TireMinder because of the App on my phone (they have dedicated screen models too) and it came with a repeater - I mounted midship my 5th wheel and powered from a marker light to pick up the sensors on the boat trailer tires. However, they are not flow through sensors so if you air up a lot, check out their flow through adapters or look to one of the other systems. The other two popular systems are TST and EEZ Tire. I wish I know if all the sensors were compatible (they're all 433.92MHZ) but I can't say with certainty.
