As far as the TPMS info goes, I can scroll through the info center and match up the different tires. I had no idea there was tire temp. I wonder if it's reaction time is such that, with tablet in hand, I can use that when I'm airing up the tires, and there isn't a gauge on the air line. That would be so cool.

Mine as well. My guess is that there are quite a few things the computer keeps track of that the DIC doesn't display. I'm gonna find out.

So, if you've read my text, you'll know it didn't work on my van. I didn't expect the temps to show, but the pressures are in the DIC. It should have worked.

Ron. Two things I just noticed. In the equations I noticed a space in what you posted, but that I had left out. Maybe that will make it work. And I don't remember putting in the scale. I had to park in the street last night and it's cold AF, so it'll be a while before I go out there.
And then there was something you said, that the system reads the sensor, not the position. Why is it that the DIC labels the position? Seems to me that it must know.

And I just found another forum thread that has the same formula, but with the parenthesis in a different order. ((A*1373/1000) * 0.145037738)
Also, a different value in the temp equation; (9/5*(A-40))+32
I'll be trying these as well.
