...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...
...you say you've gone120k miles, I've got a gut-feeling that you've 1) replaced your stems with metal ones, or 2) have been very fortunate and/or have been routinely replacing your stems; not a common practice in many tire shops, ever since the advent of factory TPMS sensors requiring specialy...
Welcome aboard! If you have a black tank clean out hookup I would also get a dedicated hose for back flushing it as well. Basic tools to work on a RV to keep in the underbelly. If it did not come equipped with TPMS…..to me a must have no questions asked.
OEM TPMS is useless. I ignore it and have TST TPMS that I use. I am pretty sure the antenna issue was addressed by Spartan previously.
Sounds like you have a plan which will get it addressed. I would see about getting the coached weighted it sounds like your rear tires maybe over inflated...
my CDO requires that I also carry a good tire pressure gauge. Anybody got a favorite? ( CDO is a lot like OCD, but the letters are in alphabetical order, the way they’re supposed to be!)
If you are insulating that watching your tire pressures, having a TPMS and taking care of your tires you can avoid any issues with tire blow outs, I respectively disagree. I baby my tires in so many ways but still almost had a disaster when a bubble formed on the inside of my tire. I found...

...advice. I will add my tow vehicle and trailer to my future posts. My trailer is a Grand Design travel trailer. It is pre-wired with a Lippert TPMS. The Lippert TPMS has a booster/extender that is hard wired into the trailer electrical system. The other systems use alligator clips to connect...
...myself a "Pro" instead of a "Rookie". Report on the DS at this time only minor issues, WIFI ranger failed, Newmar shipped me a new one, TPMS keeps losing com with the rears during travel, shower wasn't sealed correctly, we have a new wall (minor water damage) waiting for us at the dealer...
This is the brand that I purchased from amazon is “Blueskysea T650 Wireless Solar Power TPMS Tire Pressure Monitoring System for RV Trailer,with 6 External Sensors, Real-time Alarm Pressure and Temperature LCD Display for Van Truck Cars”
The sensors work for a short time then the 2 inside tires...
It is a type of TPMS that allows you to connect to a schrader valve on the end of it to fill your tire without having to remove the TPMS sensor.

And like everywhere else, they raised their prices it seems. Used to be $50 I believe.
We all get screwed sooner or later @Neemer . Glad you caught it in time to save the tire. Did your TPMS alert you or did you catch it with a walk-around?
