Tire Pressure Monitoring System
Anyone use one of these systems? I'm thinking of putting this on the RV. Seen too many horrific
results of blowouts on the highway. http://eezrvproduct.com/products/tir...systems-tpms-4 |

Have you asked around on the RV groups or checked Amazon reviews? --- This email has been checked for viruses by AVG. http://www.avg.com |

The wheel sensors appear? to be identical. I helped a buddy install similar system last week 3 out of the 12 sensors were bad. Be prepared to do a little trouble shooting. -- ----Android NewsGroup Reader---- http://usenet.sinaapp.com/ |

Expect to replace some sensors whenever they break down a tire because the tire guys usually trash them. |

These come with a three year guarantee, except for batteries. |

I think Greg is talking about the factory internal sensors. Both my car and my wife's has those, and we've had new tires mounted and haven't lost one yet. I'm sure it does happen though. The system you're looking at has external sensors which replace the valve stem cap, so as you say, you could just remove them and replace with the plastic caps until the tire work is complete. BTW, the Amazon reviews were very positive. One thing I did notice is that someone said the monitor placement was critical in getting a good, solid signal from all the sensors. |

I've had several cars with the factory tire pressure monitoring systems. The Altima I drive now has a cool feature. If you leave the ignition on (but engine off) when adding air to a tire, the car horn will beep when the tire is at 32 psi. Don't need a tire gauge. --- This email has been checked for viruses by AVG. http://www.avg.com |

I've got factory sensors in the truck tires. So far no problem. Costco takes pretty good care of them apparently, although whenever the tires are rotated I have to switch my thought pattern!! I'll go back and read the Amazon reviews. Strangely, Amazon wants more for them than the producers. Thanks. |
