As mentioned that InnoTechRV TPMS is the outdated and discontinued old TireMinder system which has been replaced with a newer TireMinder version system. Thus the two current systems ARE NOT THE SAME.

If a sensor or the monitor malfunctions, we would have you send it to our repair facility in California. We cover the return shipping and typically the turnaround time including shipping is about a week to ten days. Both the TT-500 and TT-400 do use the same sensors. But, they have been improved. The issues you describe sound like there could have been something wrong with your monitor. While a sensor or two may fail, it’s rare that say four or six would on the same configuration. Also, if you were getting no signal errors (Nos) and didn’t have one, a signal booster may have been needed.

I do apologize that you didn’t have a good experience with your TT-400. We of course want to hear about any trouble a customer is experiencing and do offer seven-day a week email and phone support.

I just sent an email to the company about their new TT-500 system.

How does the warranty work? I want to know what your policy is if a sensor or the Monitor stops functioning correctly.
Do I have to ship it to back to you? What is the turnaround for a replacement sensor or monitor? Do you pay for return shipping?
I also looked on the accessories page and only see 1 type of sensor. Does the TT-500 use the same sensor as the 400? If so, I hope that the dependability has been improved, because the original sensors were anything but dependable. I would not even consider purchasing another one of your products, except for the fact that you are now offering a Lifetime Warranty.
Needless to say, I was very disappointed in my original TT-400 system I purchased and stopped using after about 18 months due to bad sensors, and loss of signal warning, and sensors failing to come out of sleep mode etc… The system functioned fine for the first year or so, but after that it was a disaster. I believe that best warranty is one that never needs to be used. That means that the product is of a high quality, because I do not want to have to deal with another problematic system like the TT-400 I put in a box somewhere and wrote off as a bad investment!

Actually the Innotech

is the same as the old style
TireTracker TT-400

TT-500 / 10-WHEEL TIRE MONITORING SYSTEM

The only TPMS that has a lifetime warranty!

I purchased the TST 507 Flow through system 2-1/2 years ago, and I recommend against them. I've had to have all the sensors replaced once due to leaking bodies, then two of the replacement sensors did not work. You could not add or remove air from them.

I bought the TST flow-through system at the beginning of the season for the new 5'er, and I'm very pleased with it. I've got a 10-sensor system.

I have the TireMinder for my 5th wheel trailer. It saved me big money two years ago when I had two tires on one side separate and rub together. The monitor alerted the high temp and I was able to pull off the freeway into a campground. The company is awesome. Batteries are free with every purchase.
