As you may know, the new rams have tpms issues with aftermarket tires that are non-80psi rated.

I've found that any mechanic with a MAXIMUS 2.0 programming tool was able to change the tpms thresholds in 5 minutes. Reset the ECM. Light is off. New psi has been changed to 60psi.

I drive a 16' 2500. Hope this helps solve your stupid lights issue.

Any other details about the actual programming you might be able to share??

I tried to Google the "MAGNIMUS 2.0" you stated above and had no luck finding that. Was he using a MANGUS perhaps??
Thanks

There is a step by step write up in post 912 on page 76 on the Cummings Forum as to how to do it using an Autel programmer. I just purchased the Autel to do mine and it took me about 5 minutes to run through and reset mine to 45 front and rear with no lights. I am not sure of the rules of cross site posting on here, but the forum shouldn't be hard to find.

From what I have read, the Matco Maximus tool will also do it, but there hasn't been confirmation of it for certain on that site. I think the op here was probably talking about the Maximus tool rather than Magnimus.......

What is the Model number of the Autel programmer you purchased?

I rented a Maxsys from 4x4x4door, I think I spent $160 after shipping and everything.

Cummins forum has a great area where people post what state and city they are in and what they charge to do this.

There are a few in my area that charge $40-50 to do it.

Thankfully, I was able to do mine with my Chrysler tech friend before the WiTech update to remove the threshold.
