TPMS

Hi Folks,


For the life of me I can't find the on board Tire Pressure information on my 2013 Platinum. Does the 2013's have a TPMS system? I've scrolled through every menu and for the life of me can't find it. It then occurred to me maybe there are no TPMS...the stems are rubber so I guess not?

If I recall correctly, there is no "information" screen so to speak that gives you tire pressure information, just an "idiot" light if one of the tires is low:

Oh the horror!


My '07 Dodge had the per-tire display


They are more of a PITA anyway...the darn TPMS in the wheels only last a few years up here in our weather and road conditions. Plus with winter tires you need a second set, which most people just don't bother with the added expense and run with the warning light on.

Really? I'm surprised that my Lariat didn't have it too. Thought that higher trim level only have them. I was renting a car recently, Chrysler 200, it has them. But not our $50k trucks? Gee...

TPMS are set in the ECM set either by the dealer or with a device like SCT flash device.

brokenleg - how about the sidewall?
The PSI on the sidewall is the MAXIMUM for the tire and is the highest "cold" inflation pressure that the tire is designed to contain.

maybe the owners manual?
The recommended PSI is provided on a decal in the door jam. e.g. .....
If all else fails, a good ROT (Rule Of Thumb) is 80% of the maximum PSI on the sidewall and monitor tread wear.
