Who is the manufacturer of the TPMS system of concern?
Are these TPMS sensors in tire mounted or stem mounted? Flow thru or cap type?
We are integrating with TireView and TSTechnology branded TPMS hardware.
Is there a repeater in the Newmar spec'd system?
Is it CAN or RV-C protocol?
BTW, we now have both CAN and RV-C TPMS integration working nicely in myServer 6 control system.
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

Hi Stuart!
Looking at SpartanLync website, I assume this is the system involved. Looks like it supports the ability to have multiple Repeaters in the system. If I was having this issue, I would buy two repeaters and put one next to the drive axle, another midship and the Transceiver at the front (or wherever that currently is).
I am betting this will resolve the issue.

The problem is this stuff takes time to diagnose and lock down, and doesn't sound like Newmar has stepped up with a systematic diagnostics to find root cause. I don't have the patience to wait for the government. I would just buy the relatively cheap hardware and fix the problem and then report to all those needing the fix (including Newmar) what was found and how to resolve it.

Newmar doesn't want the cost to add the repeaters (for the possibly many VINs involved) and hasn't taken the time to figure out the fix is my guess.
