TPMS for HDTs

[lockmup68]

My rig came with a never installed pressure pro system and sensors. Well, monitor was plummed in and there, but not really hooked up and no sensors installed. I installed a few sensors, but no readings, so I assume since it is 7 years old now, the batteries died. 

In checking, replacement sensors will be $700 for 16 sensors, and a new system is about the same, maybe a bit more. I noticed that many in the HDT forum have replaced pressure pro with other options. Should I replace the pressure pro with another mfg or just get new sensors for the PP? 

Thanks,

Shannon

I have not used any other than Truck System Technologies.  The first was a 510 with non-replaceable batteries.  They lasted two years and some went dead.  Replacement were close to buying a whole TST 507 kit (replaceable batteries).  Unfortunately, the 510 monitor will not run the 507 wheel sensors so I had to buy the whole kit.  I like them, a lot.  I now run less wheel sensors as I put Cross-Fires on my duals.  The CrossFire costs a little more than a sensor so you almost break even.  Also putting the sensor on the Cross-Fire is a whole lot easier than putting the sensor on the back dual.

Shannon,  maybe you want to end this thread and go back to your earlier one??

don't know why this posted twice. How do you lock it?

Now that you mention it, not sure.

Maybe a little help from one of the Monitors?

I have a tire minder system and it works great. and you can change the batteries yourself.
