Tire Pressure Monitoring (TPMS)
The BlueFire App supports the PressurePro Pulse TPMS and their LINK modules. It does not
support the Pulse FX system. These systems only support the J1939 9-pin BlueFire Adapters.
J1708 6-pin Adapters are not supported. You should also ensure that your vehicle supports the
J1939 CAN data bus. If your vehicle is 2006 or older, check the diagnostic connector for at least 6
pins. If there are only 4 pins you're out of luck.
Note that a PressurePro LINK module must be configured either by a dealer or with a Pulse unit. If
you have a 2020 Tiffin Zephyr or a 2011 or newer Tiffin Motorhome, you already have a
PressurePro LINK module installed.
To install the PressurePro Pulse, do the following:
1. Purchase the following:
o A PressurePro Pulse (not the Pulse FX) from a PressurePro dealer. See our
website/store for dealers.
o A Pulse 9-Pin Cable from our website/store.
o A J1939 Y-Cable. See our website/store for links.
2. Plug the Pulse power cord into a cigarette lighter.
3. Configure the Pulse for your tire configuration. Follow their instructions.
4. Unplug and disconnect the Pulse cigarette lighter power cord.
5. Connect the Pulse 9-Pin Cable to the Pulse unit (both connections).
6. Connect the Y-Cable to your vehicle's diagnostic port.
7. Connect the Pulse 9-Pin Cable and the BlueFire Adapter to the Y-Cable. Note, the Pulse 9-
Pin Cable is only 3 feet long. While you don't need the Pulse on your dash, you do have the
option of purchasing a 9-Pin Extension cable to extend the reach of the Pulse unit.
To add TPMS to the BlueFire App, do the following:
1. Go to Settings/TPMS.
2. Configure the BlueFire App for your tire configuration. This must match the Pulse settings.
3. Restart the App (to show the TPMS home page button).
4. Add the TPMS Text gauge to your custom dash.
5. Connect the App to your Adapter.
6. Navigate to the TPMS page to view the status of your tires.
7. Tapping the TPMS icon on your custom dash will show the TPMS page and automatically
show the first tire with any TPMS alerts. The TPMS icon will change to yellow for warning
alerts and red for danger alerts. You can also configure more alert options by customizing
the TPMS gauge.
