- Yes. Just put TPMS in the search box and read on.
- We use the TireMinder TM66 system and it has been very good to us.

Very true, with the TST system you won't get a "No Sensor" reading for about an hour after connection with the sensor has been lost. About the only complaint I have with the TST system.cmeade wrote:
We have the tst 507 on our 2010 Ram 3500 megacab and 39ft Keystone Alpine 5ver. Bought the booster but was not needed. It shows press and temp on all 8 tires. When we unhook trailer and drive TV it goes thru all 8 tires but only TV tires have readings. With trailer parked in front of our barn the trailer tires give readings as we drive the TV by on the road (about 100 ft from 5ver). It is a great system!!
I do not understand what you have said. Are you saying you get all 4 readings from the trailer as you drive by after having lost communication from the trailer tires. Not possible as the tire sensors only send data every 5 minutes.
So unless it takes you close to 5 minutes to drive by you will not get data from the sensors.RCMAN46 wrote:

How long were you 50 feet away?
With the TST system you have to wait at least 1 hour to determine if you have lost communication with the tire sensor.
Easy way to determine time is to drive away from the RV with the receiver about 1 mile and see how long before you get a loss of signal.
Left in the back of my garage,behind a fence overnight.Is that long enough???cmeade wrote:

It seems to be very accurate,and the price was right. - Been using the TST system for 8 years now. Works great for me.
