I can't get my trailer TPMS to sync with the truck, the sensors are working and are readable via TPMS readers at tire shops. Is there a distance limitation on how far your truck can be away to pickup the sensors? Even my local GMC dealer was puzzled and wanted me to leave the truck and trailer with them, I declined obviously. But may end up being a day down at the dealer to get this resolved.

Do you have the tpms programing tool? I just followed the on screen instructions, placed the tool against the tire sidwall adjacent to the sensor for a 5 count and moved on.

the gm trailer tpms sensors are 433MHz frequency. when i set mine up i learned the trailer tpms to the the module on the truck each way with the tool and by airing up the tires. both ways worked fine. the tool is quicker. i don't know what the max distance is that the module would still receive the frequency from the ttpms but since the module is right behind the license plate as long as the truck is in the hook up position it should work, if the sensors are correct i wonder if there is another problem.

They are GM 433mhz sensors per the tire shops tool, that's why im wondering if there is a distance limit. Our fifth wheel is 41ft long. I may just pull up right beside the trailer hook the trailer up via wiring and see if itll acquire being closer.

Hey Guys

For those of you that still haven't purchased your new truck. I had the dealer order me the 4 sensors for $50 as thats what it would have cost if ordered originally. They did so if you want them just push for that. It was the last thing we did after getting to the price we wanted. Just FYI

I had to order the TPS for my trailer and am waiting on them to arrive, I was told today that they may not fit alloy trailer wheels because of the thickness of the wheel. Has anyone installed these or ran across this issue on alloy wheels (tps part # 84338125).

Just had my GM Trailer TPMS installed in my 40ft 5th wheel. Worked like a charm using the air down method. It never honked the truck horn, but it did place a check mark on the screen next to the tire being aired down and then moved to the next. I used GM Part number 84152501 for my setup. It's not the 2020 specific part number, but worked just fine.

Is there a submersible camera for a boat trailer? OEM or after market??

For those of you that have the TPMS sensors installed in your trailer tires, did you have to physically take in the trailer to the tire shop so they could install the sensors in each tire?

I did, but I suppose its possible to take all of your trailer tires off of the trailer and take them in. It was just much easier for me to take the whole rig in and set it up and make sure it all works there.

I used the sensors that were in the console, as I ordered truck with it.

They installed just fine in my alloy wheels.

they only will go up to 100psi tho, I have g rated tires and run 110psi. it is fine as the temp reads just fine.

Used pressure drop to pair them to vehicle, worked great, horn beep and all.

I installed them myself and balanced tires as well, I happen to have the equipment. And packed the wheel bearing while I was there.

I just took two tires off at a time and took them into the shop.

Thats what I did. Discount only charged $5 a wheel. With the trailer up there they can use the tool to help program so you don't have to walk around letting air in and out
