Only one I know that likes extremes is Neal! And that ain't several times a day!
Still freezing to warm tires, well maybe hot (standard TPMS) reading,create conditions where nitrogen would be beneficial.
I chose the TST Truck TPMS before I took delivery of my 2017 Newmar Ventana. At that time it was the black LCD display which I really liked. I bought the repeater and mounted in the half bath for easy access to the 12V fuse panel to tap into for power. Works great with the toad in that location...
I just had a rubber valve stem fail in the middle of Nowhere, Nebraska. I am pretty sure that it was caused by the TPMS sensor working the valve stem back and forth. It was on a dual, and had an extension on it.
I had the tire store install a metal stem on that rim, but I removed all of my...
...on my way to a flat sometime, with only two wheels, it's critical I know ASAP. So for some of the more seasoned RV’s here with experience, what TPMS might you recommend? BTW, I’m in the quality before economy camp.
At this point, from what little I’ve read, I’m leaning toward an...
Unless they have changed this year, for that $11k upcharge for Spartan, you get an older version of the DEF head that has a higher failure rate. You also get an older version of the TPMS that has problems communicating with the sensors.
Over the years, I've had 3 flats on my tow. Each time I was saved by my TPMS except for when I first got my LA and was using chassis TPMS because I had not gotten around to installing my EEZ yet. Thank goodness for the good people of Arkansas who waved me down. I was lucky not to ruin the rim on...
...chassis towards the back of the coach between the frame rails. On my 4369 there are actually two one up front and one back of the rear axles.
I still have issues with various sensors randomly dropping offline for periods of time, which is why I never installed sensors on the toad and use TST...
Some - *SOME* - TPMS installed on your vehicle already have brass stems for the internal sensors. Have a professional after market TPMS installer check your stems to see if you need them replaced with brass-lined stems.
On the way down to the Keys the outer tire on each side duals TPMS sensor stopped broadcasting or the Spartan computer stopped receiving a signal!!??
here is one side failed, shortly later the other outside tire failed
what I know so far:
they are mounted to the drop center of the wheel with a band on the towed vehicle so I’m assuming it’s the same for the motorhome side

Looking at them now as this 1992 former ambulance has a lack of technology. But I can't see having to many things on one screen. I already have a tpms for the ambulance, one for the TT, and I want my phone to be a phone not GPS/music/backup camera.
...flow through valve caps. Both my class B (Ford Transit) and class A dualies have flow through caps. You can also install valve cap style TPMS sensors and eliminate the need to check pressure manually. The downside is if you need to add air the sensors on the inside dualies are a bear to...
Anyone have this mounted in their Artic Wolf or any camper for that matter? Salesman said it is a TPMS mount, but I can't find any that works with it. He couldn't give me any other info. He wasn't much help.
Well, I finally found what I’d been searching for, which was a more encompassing Tire Monitoring System that turned out to be called the Trailer WatchDog system. It monitors individual tire pressures & temperatures, as well as individual hub temperatures. 👍
Interesting, can you elaborate? When I was at Spartan they wanted to install external sensors on valve stems instead of replacing batteries on the internal sensors. Their logistic was not only cost savings on battery replacement but that signal was more reliable.
Since I have no confidence in...
...issues.
A year or so later, traveling solo to NYC, the Towed suffered a similar fate but on a standard new rubber valve stem. Luckily the TPMS alerted me to the low Towed tire and I was able to get it repaired. Immediately changed the rubber stems for metal valve stems used on competition...
