Most of the Name-Brand Tire Shops have an OTC TPMS tool that can read the tire sensors' frequency, battery condition, temperature and ID number. An advanced Scan tool can also read the sensors through the vehicle's OBD-II connector as well as the receivers and can reset the proper sensor ID to it's position on the vehicle.

Up until yesterday the oil gauge in my 2001 Dodge Ram 1500 would go to 0 - the check gauges lite would come on and pressure would be restored just as quickly as it had been lost. Yesterday, the truck won't start at all - all gauges seem to be OK except the oil gauge - nothing happens when I turn the key. Could this be the oil pump? 5 Answers

08 Dodge Ram 1500 quad cab rwd with 25,000 miles. I have been feeling bumps like going over road reflectors where there are no bumps, feels mostly like right rear. I have recent Cooper Discoverer AT 3's @35psi and recent Monroe Reflex shocks. I checked and lubed the rear shackles and just had the tire store check it out and rebalance all four tires, no change. This started happening after a very rough patch of freeway. Could there be a problem with the rear leaf springs ? 2 Answers
