Product Family
Spicer’s® Tire Maintenance System is one of a family
of tire pressure management products that improve the productivity
of commercial vehicles. Spicer’s® family of
tire pressure management products include:
• Tire Maintenance System–This system senses
when one or more tires are below the desired cold
pressure setting and reinflates the tires to the
desired setting. The system alerts the vehicle operator,
via a warning lamp, when tires are significantly
below the desired pressure.
• Mobility Systems–These systems are used in military
and on/off-highway commercial applications.
Spicer’s® mobility systems are capable of
controlling tire pressure over a wide range of operating
conditions. In addition to providing the benefits
of the systems described above, these systems can
lower tire pressure significantly to maximize the area
of the tire footprint and greatly improve vehicle
mobility under soft surface conditions.

General Information
Importance of Maintaining Proper Tire
Pressure
Maintaining proper tire pressures can result in significant
benefits for owners as well as operators. Tires are second
only to fuel as a maintenance cost. They account for the
majority of road failures, primarily as a result of underinflation.
Tires represent a fleet’s number one labor maintenance
cost, contributing to over half of the total maintenance dollars
spent.
System Overview
The Spicer Tire Maintenance System is designed to
automatically inflate tires that are below their cold tire pressure
setting using compressed air from the brake supply tank.
Air seals and hoses remain non-pressurized when the system
is not actively checking or inflating the tires. A warning lamp
will turn on when one or more tire pressure(s) is low by 10%
or more. The lamp will not turn on for minimal inflation
requirements of less than 10%, thus avoiding operator distraction
when no action is required.
If a tire is low, the remaining tires are protected from pressure
loss by integral check-valves located in each tire hose. In
addition, should system or tire maintenance be required (i.e.
leaky tire resulting in excessive inflation), the lamp will flash
multiple times at power-up indicating service is required.

Operation
Operation
System Operation
Manually Checking Tire Pressure
To ensure that the system is functioning, the operator should
verify that a 2 second warning lamp bulb check occurs when
the unit is powered. The system is powered from the “blue
circuit” on the 7 pin trailer connector.
Once powered, the brake supply tank must be charged before
the system will operate. The system will then pressurize the
lines and measure the tire pressure. If one or more tires are
low, the system automatically inflates the low tire(s) to the
cold tire pressure setting. The remaining tires are protected
from pressure loss by check-valves located in each tire hose.
If one or more tires are low by 10% or more, the warning
lamp will turn on and remain on until the tire(s) are reinflated.
Once the tires are at the proper pressure, the seals and hoses
will be depressurized, preventing unnecessary wear on the
seals. The system rechecks tire pressure every 10 minutes by
momentarily pressurizing the lines and measuring tire pressure
as described above.
If the warning lamp flashes multiple times on powerup, the
system has stored a service code and may be unable to properly
check or maintain tire pressure. The operator should
manually check tire pressures to ensure that it is safe to operate
the vehicle and should seek service at the next opportunity.
If the warning lamp remains on, the system is attempting to
inflate the tires but may not be able to adequately maintain
proper tire pressure. The operator should stop and check the
tires to determine if it is safe to continue to operate the vehicle
and should seek service at the next opportunity.
WARNING: To prevent injury, always wear eye protection
when maintaining or servicing the vehicle.
Note: Check valves in the tire hoses prevent tire pressure loss
when a tire hose is removed. You may, however, experience
air flow at the open line and a low tire indication on
the warning lamp if the tire hose is disconnected and the
system is powered.
To manually check tire pressure:
• Disconnect tire hose from tee or straight fitting at
hubcap, or disconnect from valve stem.
• Use a conventional gage to measure tire pressure at
hose end or at valve stem. See illustration below.
• Reattach and firmly hand-tighten tire hose.
CAUTION: Do not overtighten tire hose or the seal may
be damaged! Ensure tire hoses are not stretched or
rubbing on the wheel!

CAUTION: All hoses must be connected for system to

Operation
Warning Lamp Description
Two Seconds On at Power-Up
This is a system verification and warning lamp bulb check. If
there is no bulb check at power-up, the system may not be
functioning. Verify proper power is applied to the system.
Note: The maintenance system utilizes the trailer’s blue circuit
for power. Some early model tractors do not power this
circuit resulting in no power to the system.
Multiple Flashes at Power-Up
If the warning lamp flashes multiple times on power-up, the
system has stored a service code. A service code indicates the
need for tire or system maintenance. If this occurs, the system
may be unable to properly check or maintain tire pressure.
Verify that all tires are inflated properly, and have the
system serviced at the next opportunity.
Note: Only active service codes will cause the warning lamp
to blink multiple times at power up.
How the System Operates
The system checks the tire pressures on a ten-minute interval.
To measure the tire pressure, the system charges the air lines
with a series of pulses. If the line pressure has not increased
to the target tire pressure after a specified period of time, the
system will begin to inflate the low tire(s). If the measured tire
pressure is 10% or more below the target tire pressure, the
warning lamp will illuminate while the system is inflating the
tire(s) to inform the driver of a potential tire leak. Once the target
tire pressure is achieved, the system performs an additional
check to verify that the control lines have depressurized
and turns off the lamp.
To prevent air from leaking while the control lines are not
pressurized, there is a check valve (no spring valve core) in
each of the tire hoses.
If the warning lamp is on, the driver should check all the tires
for damage and take corrective actions if applicable.
Lamp on Continuously
The lamp will light if the measured pressure of one or more
tires is 10% or more below the cold pressure setting. The
lamp will remain on until the tires are reinflated to the proper
tire pressure. If the lamp is on, the operator should stop the
vehicle and check the tires for damage.
Under some conditions of normal operation, you may find
that the warning lamp illuminates when no visible damage is
apparent. This may be due to changes in ambient temperature
while the trailer is idle. When the system is first powered on a
trailer at a temperature significantly lower than when previously
operated, cooling of the tires may result in a drop of
pressure below 10% of the target pressure, thus illuminating
the lamp.
Refer to the Tire Maintenance System Performance at 100
psig on page 33 for examples of temperature effects on tire
pressure. In addition, the lamp may turn on solid as the result
of a significant air line leak, the system failing to depressurize,
or because a new ECU has not had a target programmed yet.
CAUTION: Extended periods of use with the lamp illuminated
may decrease the life of the rotary air seals.

Components
Component Description
Tire Hose (with integral check valve)
• Provides an air passage from the hubcap tee or
straight fitting to the tire.
• Integral check valves in the tire hoses allow the air
lines and seals to remain non-pressurized when the
system is not checking or inflating the tires.
• No modification to the standard valve stem or core is
required.
Rotary Joint (RJ)
• Provides a means to allow the air to flow from a nonrotating
axle spindle to the rotating hubcap.
• The RJ is composed of seals and bearings. The air
seal prevents leakage from the rotating shaft and the
oil seal guards against contamination.
• Provides a vent for air pressure in the hubcap during
normal use and in the event of rotary joint damage.
• Under normal operation, the RJ will be nonpressurized
for the majority of the time.
Manifold
• Solenoids control the flow of air to tires.
• Pressure sensor reads tire pressure.
• Serviceable inlet filter reduces contamination from
the air source.
Electronic Control Unit (ECU)
• Controls the manifold to read and maintain tire pressures.
• Performs a lamp check to inform the driver that the
system is powered and operational.
• Turns on the warning lamp when the measured tire
pressure drops more than 10% (typical value) below
the target pressure.
• Detects faults and displays service codes via the
warning lamp.
• Provides on-board diagnostic support over a industry
standard SAE J1708/J1587 communication interface.
• Provides diagnostics support via blink-codes.
• Stores historical data for future use.

Installation
Axle Preparation
The following describes the procedure for preparing a trailer
axle for system installation.
The Spicer Tire Maintenance System is designed to be
used on trailer axles with hollow tapered (D22 series) or hollow
parallel (P22 series) spindles with inside diameter
machined to a minimum depth of 1.0". Some trailer axles have
a solid web inside the spindle under the inner bearing that
may be modified to allow for a hose to be routed through the
obstruction. Consult with the axle manufacturer for approval
to modify the axle before installation of the Dana Spicer Tire
Maintenance System.
The Spicer Tire Maintenance System does not require
the removal of the wheel assemblies. However, the tires must
be blocked and the trailer supported to prevent movement
during installation.
WARNING: Block all wheels before beginning this
installation procedure. Never work under a vehicle supported
by a jack.
1. Block tires to keep the trailer from moving.

Note: The Maintenance System cannot be installed on solid
spindle trailer axles.
Note: The Maintenance System is not compatible with Axilok
or cotter pin locked spindle nuts. Use of the 3-piece jam
nut system with the maintenance system is recommended.
Pro-Torque nuts may require use of an optional
hubcap spacer.
2. If the trailer is equipped with an air suspension system,
deflate the air springs or support the trailer
frame to prevent settling during installation.
3. If the wheel end is oil lubricated, drain the oil from
the hubcap and discard.
4. Remove the hubcap bolts and hubcap.
5. Remove the spindle plug from the end of the spindle.
6. Inspect spindle plug bore and remove any burrs or
sealant.
7. Check the inside of the spindle to insure that there is
a passage through the axle to allow installation of the
air line.
8. Locate the three 1/4" pipe plugs on the top of the
axle tube near the center and remove. If the axle was
not prepared at the factory with the three 1/4" pipe
thread holes, proceed to step 10.
9. Proceed to the Component Installation section.

controller assembly. An existing suspension PPV can also be
used to supply air to the suspension as well as the Tire Maintenance
System.
Proper Tire Maintenance System operation requires correct
air line diameters and lengths. The following diagrams show
air brake tubing lengths and sizes and associated fittings
required to complete the system installation.
CAUTION: To prevent twisting air line inside axle when
tightening fittings to the axle hose fitting, use a wrench
to hold the axle hose fitting.
CAUTION: Proper Tire Maintenance System operation
requires correct air line diameters and lengths. Installation
sizes and lengths must be within limits shown.
CAUTION: Proper Tire Maintenance System operation
requires correct air line connections. All junctions of
two or more 1/4" lines MUST “upsize” to 3/8" line for
adequate flow.
CAUTION: To prevent contamination of the Tire Maintenance
System, do not install fitting on the bottom of
the air supply tank.
Additional Axles
For systems with 3 or 4 axles, observe the installation requirements
as shown in the following diagrams. Extend the main 3/

System Set-up
Setting Tire Pressure Target
After completing the installation, the system’s tire pressure
target must be set before using the trailer. On power-up, the
lamp will remain on as an indication that the target pressure
has not been set.
There are two methods for setting the system’s tire pressure
target:
• System Learn Method – all tire pressures are set to
the cold tire pressure setting and the system reads
the tire pressure target
• Service Tool Method – a service tool (PC-based or
hand-held) is used to “download” the target over the
data link.
Short Pins A and E
and Release 3 Times
to Enter Learn Mode
F B
A
E

C
218UX017
System Learn Method
In order to set the target tire pressure using this method, all
the tires must be verified to be at the target pressure for an
accurate setting. Use the procedure in How to Manually Check
Tire Pressures to measure and set the cold tire target pressure
for all tires.
1. Apply 12 volt power to the trailer at the SAE J560
connector.
2. Provide adequate pressure to the brake supply tank.
(Minimum of desired tire target pressure +5 psi or
90 psi, whichever is greater.) Note: Older systems
with ECU P/N 676351 require a minimum supply of
110 psi to program.
3. Remove the weather cap from the diagnostic connector.
Short pins “A” and “E” in the following
sequence: short the pins three times, maintaining
the short for approximately 1 second on and waiting
1 second off. The pins to be shorted can be easily
identified by the interconnecting slot in the shell,
allowing convenient use of a coin or screwdriver tip
to short the pins together.
4. Upon entering learn mode, the warning lamp will
turn on for 2 seconds twice and will then flash once
every 10 seconds to acknowledge that the learn
mode is active.
5. The system will pressurize the air lines for several
seconds, and then wait for the pressure to stabilize.
6. The tire pressure read will be stored as the target
pressure. Once the target pressure is established,
the warning lamp will turn ON continuous for 5 seconds
and then flash out the target pressure. For
example, if the tire pressure is 102 psi, the light will
turn ON continuous for 5 seconds and then flash 1
time, pause and then flash 10 more times, pause and
then flash 2 more times (0 is represented by 10
flashes). If the value flashed is lower than the desired
target pressure, verify that all the tires are set to the
proper pressure and that no line leaks are present.
7. After the system has determined the target pressure,
it will remain pressurized for up to 2 minutes (or
until power is cycled). During this time, a manual
check for air leaks should be made.
If a line leak is detected, the system will not pro
gram a target pressure and warning lamp will turn
on solid. If this occurs, correct the leak(s) and then
set all tires to the target pressure and conduct the
learn sequence again.
Note: The system is only pressurized for two minutes following
the attempted target learn. A leak will only be
audible during this time.
27

System Set-up
Troubleshooting Learn Mode
Several faults may cause the system not to learn the target.
The following is a list of the most common occurrences.
CAUTION: Use of a battery charger as the power supply
may result in the system not functioning properly.
Condition Possible Causes
Lamp does not illuminate during power-up
System remains in learn mode (Lamp flashes once every
10 seconds)
The lamp remains illuminated after the learn mode
The system reads the tire pressure low
Poor electrical connection, power below 9 volts, or burned out lamp
Supply pressure is below 90 psi minimum
A fault has occurred, refer to the blink code diagnostics or PC tool
Air leaks, supply pressure too low, air line leaks, kinked or restricted
supply line, or not plumbed per installation guidelines.
Service Tool Method
When using a PC or other supported service tool connected to
the diagnostic port, follow the instructions included with the
service tool.
1. Apply 12 volt power to the trailer at the SAE J560
connector.
2. Enter the desired cold temperature tire pressure target
into the ECU using the service tool and then
remove power from the trailer.
3. Reapply power and verify proper operation by selecting
the manual operation mode in the Diagnostic
Tool. Select pressure check and hold to check for
leaks in the system.
4. Watch for a drop in manifold pressure and listen for
any audible leaks. If a leak is found, take corrective
actions.
5. If any faults have occurred during programming,
clear all historical faults.

Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting Introduction
The system identifies certain conditions and reports them via
the trailer mounted warning lamp. In normal mode, the operator
is informed whenever a tire is low enough to require service
(typically 10%) or there is a fault in the system. For
troubleshooting, additional information can be obtained either
through blink-codes, or through use of service tools connected
to the diagnostic connector.
Blink Code Diagnostics
Blink codes provide a means to determine what service codes
exist without requiring any special tools. Apply power to system.
To activate blink-codes, remove the weather cap from the
diagnostic connector and electrically short pins "A" and "E"
together until warning lamp changes state (approximately 5
seconds). The pins to be shorted can be easily identified by
the interconnecting slot in the shell, allowing convenient use
of a coin or screwdriver tip to short the pins together. The
warning lamp will turn on for 5 seconds upon entering the
diagnostics mode, and will then flash a 2 digit service code.
See the Warning Lamp Status Chart (Diagnostic Mode) for
service code descriptions. Should more than one fault exist,
there will be a 2 second pause between each flash sequence.
If no faults are present or all the faults have been flashed, the
system will flash a code 5-5.
It is not necessary to short the diagnostic connector to obtain
blink-codes when a service tool is used for troubleshooting.
Follow the instructions included with the service tool.
Blink Code Description
Low Tire - Low tire pressure is indicated by a solid warning
lamp. This service code will be set when one or more tire
pressures drops a predetermined amount (typically 10%)
below the target pressure. Inspect the tires to verify there is
no tire damage. This fault can also be set as a result of a large
line leak.
System Fault - A system fault is set when a problem has been
detected with the system. System service codes include
memory reset, internal atmospheric sensor fault, or other
pneumatic faults.
Code 5-5 - This indicates the end of the service code list. If
this is the only code received, then no service codes exist.
