Lippert Tire Linc System: Are Internal TPMS Sensors Standard on New 5th Wheels?

Thread Summary

A member who recently purchased a new 5th wheel with the Lippert Tire Linc system is unable to connect the monitor, as the dealer claims external TPMS sensors are no longer needed. Several experienced RVers clarify that newer models often use internal sensors, eliminating the need for external valve stem sensors. One member advises following the pairing instructions closely, as the system should work with the included monitor if internal sensors are present.<br><br>Some RVers express... More...

I picked up my new 5 th wheel, it came with the tire line system. I have everything except the TPM sensor for each wheel. The dealer says those aren’t needed anymore. So I can’t get the monitor to talk to the reader. No connection made
No tpms needed on the new models?

Lippert tire linc system
 
mine are internal, so I only need the small monitor that came with system(3x5)
 
I do not rely on the Lippert TPMS, due to the fact it has/was always throwing incorrect alerts at me, while my tires are fine. I purchased a good tire gauge up to 150 PSI, and check my tires when cold. Purchased a Dewalt Tire inflator with other available options on it from Costco. When my tires read lower then the recommended tire pressure 65 PSI (like just sitting for a few months recently read 57 PSI on my tires) I inflate them back to 65.

If you have the monitor, there are no sensors for the valve stems, they are internal.

Follow the pairing instructions.....

Had that same problem with my 2025 ms the dealer had no clue but after my home work and a call Lippert if you have H rated tires the internal sensor do not work so they send me out all new valve stem sensor at no charge and also said the ones that are internal will not interfere work ok you just have to download to your phone and buy a repeater pair it to the docking station so when the repeater goes off you look at your phone to see which tire

Grand Design is now installing the banded (internal) TireLinc sensors. You have to pair the sensors with the repeater before first use (see the TireLinc instruction manual in your bag of manuals).

That said; the TireLinc system is STILL junk.

I had tried the valve stem sensors that came with my previous Solitude and never was happy with the performance. Eventually, after a second sensor started leaking air, I switched to TST.

When I got my new Solitude, I was hoping the new banded sensors might work better. NOPE! After a couple of days of sensors dropping signal to the repeater, I went back to my TST system.

TST works great. I highly recommend.
 
Yes this is true the only thing is it was included in his or her unit so we all know we paid for that so he or she should complain and get the right new ones for free it happened to me I just got RV back last week and that was one of the problems it was in there for

Second that! My new Reflection came with the TireLinc system. I tried it out for a couple long trips, but went back to my TST system. I thought the display was not very clear and the battery life was terrible. TST is much better than TireLinc.
 
Right, I'm try it out next season because it came with the RV. But I'm with you on trying something new cause the ones they replace it with do not come with a monitor and you have to buy a repeater and when it goes off you still got to pull it up on your phone to see what tire it is and what's going on smh
 
Well I assume the sensors are internal, however I can’t get a connection to show on the nice monitor. I’m still messing with it.

Is the H rated tire issue a publicly acknowledged issue? My new 2025 390 with internal sensors has never worked. Dealer is working on it now for the 3rd time.
