Tire Pressure Monitor System (Tpms) Tire Light Load Inflation Switch Description (2500 Models) - If Equipped - RAM 1500 Owner's Manual

Vehicles with Full Size Spare
1. The matching full size spare wheel and tire assembly
has a TPM sensor that can be monitored by the TPMS.
2. If you install the full size spare in place of a road tire
that has a pressure below the low-pressure warning
limit, upon the next ignition switch cycle, a chime will
sound and the "Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale
Light" will turn ON. In addition, the EVIC will display
a "LOW TIRE PRESSURE" message and a graphic
showing the low tire pressure value flashing.
3. After driving the vehicle for up to 20 minutes above
15 mph (25 km/h) the "Tire Pressure Monitoring
Telltale Light" will turn OFF and the pressure value
will be updated and stop flashing, as long as no tire
pressure is below the low-pressure warning limit in
any of the four active road tires.
