Abstract
Systems and methods are described for monitoring a communicative connection with a trailer. Messages transmitted between a tire pressure management module of a trailer and a controller of a vehicle may be monitored. A notification may be triggered when the controller has not received a message from the tire pressure management module during at least a predetermined period of time.
