My 2021 Solitude came with Tire Linc. Since I put it in I had an issue with the Tire Alert Indicator randomly beeping 10 times with blinking light. I called LCI numerous times & they were not very helpful. Eventually I was told that this was a known issue with no solution. I was told that if the beeping bothered me to wrap the Tire Alert Indicator in aluminum foil to block the signal. I tried a new Tire Alert Indicator but nothing changed.

Then last week I noticed that my rear left tire sensor was not updating from the starting pressure & temp when I left a campground. More calls to LCI & I replaced the sensor & the repeater. The new repeater could not learn the left rear tire sensor. The left rear tire is the furthest from the repeater since it’s mounted to the basement wall on the passenger side. I removed the docking station & used longer wire to move it to the drivers side of the trailer. The rear tire sensor was learned immediately. So I repositioned the sensor to the middle of the wall, removed & reattached each tire sensor & all 4 tires alerted & then came back on line immediately when I screwed the sensors on again. So I’m thinking that the docking station was placed by the factory on the right side because it was easier for them & they figured their customers wouldn’t have to climb inside the basement to pair up the repeater. Has anyone else had this problem & solved it by moving the docking station & repeater. I hope this works! Maybe the random Tire Aleet alarms will also stop!
