Tire fill alert?

[MS Delta]

Just replaced my 2016 Laramie with a 2024 and upon reading the manual it states that there is a tire fill alert where the horn will sound once correct pressure is attained while filling. Anyone used this? Is it accurate? If so that would be an awesome feature in my opinion.

It works great, sounds the horn and flashes the lights, more accurate than your average pressure gauge.

It works , horn honks and hazards flash .

That’s awesome! That will be such a time saver not having to stop and manually check or overshoot and have to bleed, etc…

As long as you know to expect it, first time I had to fill one up I didn’t realize this and scared the hell out of me. Few weeks later I spotted another Ram owner filling one of his and I just sat and waited and watched sure enough he was also not expecting it.

I made sure to tell the fella at Discount tire about it, so he wouldn't think I was doing it.

Does this works for all trims or just Laramie?

All trims that have the factory TPMS.

At home, I use an automatic shutoff tire inflator. It will adjust the tire pressure to the preset PSI. What I've noticed about the tire fill alert is that it is easy to overair a pound or two which isn't a big deal. It is a nice feature and I leave mine on.

, makes it so easy. On my 2011 Honda Fit can read the TPM pressure with an Autel Maxitpms, wish it worked on all my vehicles.

I have a Milwaukee M12 tire inflator that works good. I'm sure the M18 would be a little faster. But I m a red household.

Same, at the time I didn’t carry an inflator with me. Later on bought one just to carry in the truck and have available when the temperature changes and throws all the tire pressure off, and also nice not having to drive to several gas stations that have a working pump or a line waiting to use said pump. M12 FTW good enough for vehicle tires and not very bulky.

i ended up turning it off because when i'm airing down for trails the flashing hazards are annoying and when I'm airing up the horn would randomly honk before the set pressure is reached. I was ok with it but my friends complained every time lol
so i just rely on my Moorflate gauge and it's pretty accurate.

These are what I use:

MORRFlate Quad+: 4-Tire Hose Kit, Up to 155" Wheelbase • MORRFlate by My Off Road Radio

Inflate, Deflate, and Equalize air pressure in all 4 tires, all at once. See all of the uses below: Air up 1 to 4 tires simultaneously (Less stress on your compressor!) Air down 1 to 4 tires simultaneously (Less stress on you!) Check all of the tires' PSI from the manifold (No more...

morrflate.com

This allows you to do all 4 at the same time to ensure equal pressure on all 4 tires.
The included gauge is accurate; i compared the pressure shown on the gauge vs the dash and they're the same.

Single Motor Onboard 12V Air Compressor CKMA12

Air Compressor

store.arbusa.com

ARB Single Compressor mounted under the hood. Can fill all 4 tires (35x12.5R18) from 20 PSI to 40 PSI in about 5-7 minutes. I didn't time it but I usually smoke a cigarette when the pump is running, and one cigarette takes about 5 minutes.
Only downside is I have to keep the engine running when airing up.

Yesterday I was airing up the tires. On one, I knew I aired it too much. Checked it with a pressure gauge and it was 42lbs. I did not get any horn or lights flashing to "tell" me when it was at the correct pressure. What am I missing?
I guess I gotta go get the manual unless one of you kind folks would like to tell me that there is a setting I should check...

what does your door sticker say? It goes based on what the sticker says.

Truck needs to be on for it to notify you. I've never had it notify me personally

The engine was off. I will have to test it with the acc on, then with the start on but the engine not running & then with the engine running...

Ignition on or engine running, tire pressure display on in the instrument cluster and I believe the driver`s door open also.
It is somewhere in the owners manual, who wants to read that...

Too much crap. I'll just use a tire gauge at that point. I mean, I still would anyways.
