So much to learn. Back in Dec our tire sensors started malfunctioning. Bought all new and 4 more for a Jeep I had yet to purchase. Everything was installed into our 2016 King Aire and 2018 Wrangler (toad). I stupidly thought that I could just sit and program these back into my coach. Turns out...
Used EZ on the past RV. This time I am going to stick with a manual gauge and chassis supplied TPMS system.
My thought is to verify its operation with a manual gauge then use the chassis system if there is an anomaly.
Typically I check pressure each trip before heading out. Verify with on board...
I too, use a TST-507 TPMS system. And I use a digital tire gauge.
Surprisingly, they agree on all (coach & toad) but two tires, the inside duals. TST is one pound lower than the digital gauge.
Guess I am lucky that they are that close. And have had both the "TST" & digital gauge for almost 4...
...it sounds like they are well made products. I gave up trying to get all my tires at the exact same pressure and manage to get within 2 psi (according to the TPMS) with a manual gauge, but I can see how this would allow fine tuning of tire pressure. You could also compare results with the TPMS.
I had been watching this tread to see if there really was a way to actually change the useless SoartanLync TPMS warnings.
I bought 2x 20k weight scales and do 4 corner each major trip. I do cheat and after chocking other wheels lift the cornet up on the leveling jack 3” off ground and slide...
This weekend, got the basics of TPMS CAN transceiver integration working. Starting to work on a user interface for it. Using PSITireInflation.com parts. We also want to add the ability to pair wheel sensors to position, and manage the 4 sets of settings.
@Stuart S take a look at @redbaron's post as an FYI to see if you're buying into something you may not want to?

On the VW the OEM TPMS system does not use sensors. The VW system uses differential wheel speed to sense low tire pressure. Unfortunately I have had many flat tires on this vehicle and the TPMS system works flawlessly.
On the RV I use the EEZ TPMS system. EEZ uses screw on tire sensors. So the...
...how to do it or you can damage things pretty good. When I had rettrobands on my Ventana I carried a document that shows how to do it. They may have improved since I had the first generation. I have thought about getting them on my bus but I have to research first because of the tpms system.
...House, Flashlights, Remotes, Clamp Meters, CO and Smoke detectors, Safe, non-contact thermometer, Remote weather station, cellphones, ipad, TPMS, ear buds, air bed inflator, hearing aids, bike computer, bike lights, bike radar... We already suck at environmental protection, if batteries are...
...needing to modify the Harmony Hub at all!
The list of supported products to control just went way up!
And of course, with SmartRemote, you can also control things in your RV that the Harmony never could (like slides, water systems, TPMS, etc.
Completely customizable to make is usable by YOU.
...this remote controlling my coach's water system, lighting, slides, TVs, Roku, FireTV, DirecTV, Denon receiver, LG and Samsung TV, audio player, TPMS system. Much more RV specific stuff in the works. A single remote control that makes using your RV easier. Requires some expertise to install...
My 22 will have a new tpms, but I have decided not to use it for the toad. The primary reason is my toad is a jeep wrangler, and I do the 5 tire rotation on it every 5k miles. It has large 37s and I want to get the most out of them. I considered buying the tool that let's me set the tpms, and...
Even on our 2022 SuperStar the rear inners did not have extensions.
Dealership added the rubber stabilizer and extensions ( or longer valve stems, need to verify ) so I could attach my TPMS easily. Know I’ll need to watch the rubber stabilizers but they should be the new design.
...to experience the frustration, etc!
Fortunately or unfortunately, My Canyon Star doesn't have a lot of this "hi-Tech" stuff!
I do have a TST 507 TPMS system that I am totally happy with, and it works so well, I do not even have to have a booster antenna installed, for it to receive signals...
Two things about TPMS sensors:
1. Don’t use the flo-thrus.
2. Take off the anti theft shells and the sensors will be much smaller. My Jeep has run with the sensors installed without the theft shells for 120k of towing & driving with no problem.
