How to set TPMS to ANY pressure

[Donnie Straps]

You can also use the Alfaobd app for $50. Works with Android phones or they have a pc version. Plus it does a lot more, like adjust tire size and much more.

Yes, I just did it with AlfaOBD, using my OBDlink-LX scanner on my 2018 2500.
Had to use a Security Gateway Bypass adapter from AEV, p/n 30406052AA
Got the 4-digit pin from the dealer parts dept and it worked perfectly first try.

Total cost was $125, a lot less than what the dealer wanted to charge and now I have a tool that allows me access to many functions and features.

Can you post some links for the rest of us who don’t know exactly what you’re talking about? I’d like to look into this further.

Thanks!

Which part?

The one about why anyone would want to adj the TPMS warning thresholds, or the part about how to do it?

BTW, I see that you have a 3500.
So this is not needed for your truck.

My truck absolutely has TPMS. But I would love to see where you got this tool. I’m. It familiar with AEV.

I’d love to see a procedure as well, but if it’s complicated, no worries. I’m sure that information is available with the right stuff (and tool in hand) to research. Heck, the instructions or help file may be all you need. I’m not sure. That’s why I was hoping you could elaborate a bit if you don’t mind sir.

You get the flashing screen on startup if you air down?

There are quite a few threads here discussing what AlfaOBD is capable of:

I'm no expert on it and am just starting to learn what it is capable of doing.
The 1st reason I got it is to lower the TPMS threshhold on the rear wheels so I could air down when empty, 80-psi is just too much air for an empty 2500.
2nd reason it to change the BCM vehicle configuration to reflect the rear axle ratio change I made.

Where did you get this?

Your 3500 should have TPIS, not TPMS.

TPIS looks the same but doesn’t have any warnings associated with it, so no need to adjust anything.

I’ve had my tires down to 35 psi without issue.

For the security bypass cable I bought mine from this site.

Thanks for clarifying that up. The (lack of) OM doesn't say much about it.

Where did you get this?

I got it from a local shop who has it in stock, CJC in Belflower, CA.
But if you google the p/n I posted you'll find several online sources, MSRP is $25.

Thank you for this information. I am going in asap for my PIN information. We just had to get it for my wife's Grand Cherokee so we could have the new key FOB programmed. They gave it to her without questioning her at all.
If i live in Mesa, AZ, where can I go to have someone do this operation for me? Who do I contact?
Thank you again as I am getting sick of the tire pressure warnings all the time.

I live in Queen Creek did you get yours adjusted and if so can I get the contacts information thank you

Anyone have the autel scanner near me in Suisun City, Ca? I have my key pin and everything and my launch x431 does not have the option.

Just buy the AlphaOBD app and do it yourself, see https://www.turbodieselregister.com/threads/who-is-using-alfa-obd.267370/

 

[17Ram2500]

I live in NW Iowa and have the AlfaOBD set up. I can do almost anything with the app for Ram, Jeep, Dodge, Chrysler, Fiat, etc. Message me if you’re near me and I can get your mods done for you.

Does anyone know of someone in Louisiana that has this?

I've not heard of any one in the area. I have helped several in Louisiana if that would be interest. Shoot me a message for details.

 

[Colin Campbell]

Is anyone in the Tennessee or Kentucky area that could help me out with changing my TPMS. 2015 2500

Would not necessarily call it close, but I do have the scanner and live in Reno Nevada.
