Are Aftermarket TPMS Sensors Compatible With Factory In-Dash Monitors

Question

Question:

Dodge Ram has an option that allows you to monitor several trailer tire pressures that will show up on the in dash screen just like the truck tires. Will your screw on tps work with that system?

The TPMS (tire pressure monitoring systems) wheel sensors we offer, such as the # TST-507-RV-S4 you'd looked at would used their own monitors, and wouldn't be compatible with the factory in-dash monitor on a Ram truck. The sensors you'd looked at would be included with a kit like # TST-507-RV-6-C which would include 6 sensors, the color monitor and the signal booster.

I've linked to a demonstration video featuring the # TST-507-RV-6-C TPMS system.

Junic, I did some research it looks like the 770 monitor will work with all other TPMS's as long as they have a date code of 4519 (45th week of 2019) or newer. If your sensors are older, then you'd need to use the 507 display; #TST-507-D-C.
