This test requires use of a diagnostic tool (PC or handheld)

to control and monitor the functions of the Spicer TPCS, and

an accurate tire pressure gauge.

Select Highway-Loaded. Upon successfully achieving

Highway-Loaded, verify tire pressures are within ± psig of

desired pressure. If significant tire imbalance exists, balance

should be achieved by using the system to generate a short

deflate, followed by re-inflating the tires, or by manually

adjusting.

Verify governor cut-out pressure: ________________________________________ (Acceptance criteria: 120-125 psig)

Verify the Pressure Switch cycles open & closed during inflation: Yes / No

Use Diagnostic tool to verify proper configuration: ________________________________________________________
