    I have been able to monitor tranny temps, oil pressures, etc. with my OBDLink reader. Today I wanted to add a dashboard for tire pressures. I was able to setup the dashboard as seen below. My 4R is properly reporting tires pressures on the dashboard. However, on my OBDLink reader, the tire pressures are always zero.

    Anyone know how to correct this?

    did you log into the TPMS instead of the general monitoring system at the initial login screen?

    Not sure, I have not used the app that much and have been unable to find a user manual online that guides me. Any help leading me through the app would be greatly appreciated.

    Under the Select PIDs section, I have checked all Tire Inflation Pressure checkboxes.

    Below is a screenshot of what appears, and none of the options have anything to do with TPMS, unless you setup a dashboard and select an item to monitor. I have tried every tire pressure option and nothing shows up. It was connected when I took the screenshot.

    OK, so when you first connect you should see this screen -- choose the Tire Pressure Monitor -- otherwise, for most stuff I've just used the Generic OBD2TPM_PIC.jpg

    The first screen I see, is the one I posted above.

    I never see the screen you are referring to.

    As soon as you press "connect +" you'll see that dialog box pop up. Instead of selecting "Generic OBD" or "Network A", choose "Tire Pressure Monitor". This will load ONLY your tire pressures, no other data will populate on your dashboard. As far as I know there isn't a way to have to all display at the same time.

    Thank you so much. I was missing that step. Unfortunately the device did not come with a manual and I could not find manual online.
    Thanks again.
