Proposal from the TPMSTI task force to revise the communication interface protocol of TPMS between towing and towed vehicles of categories N2, N3 and O3, O4, respectively (described in Annex 5 on the basis of the ISO bus requirements) in alignment with UN R13 and ISO updates. The proposal further corrects and clarifies provisions across TPMS, TPRS and CTIS.

51. WP.29 endorsed the updates of the Terms of Reference of the IWG MU and IWG WGWT.

In paragraph 4.4.1., replace “markings” with “approval mark”.

The World Forum recommended their submission to AC.1 for voting.
19. GRBP took note of the activities of the Task Force on Tyre Pressure Monitoring System and on Tyre Installation (TF TPMSTI) (GRBP-73-13) and addressed amendment proposals on the requirements for the communication interface between the towing and towed vehicles that had been prepared by TF TPMSTI (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRBP/2021/6 and GRBP-73-03).
