My new Influence came with the TireLinc system. I have been trying to get it to pair with the Compass Connect app but it can’t seem to find it. I push the link button on the TireLinc module until the pairing light starts to flash and then try to add it in Compass Connect but it never discovers anything. Is there another trick to get it to pair? It also came with a separate monitor to use in the truck and to be fair I have not tried to pair it to that yet. In reality once I get my new 2024 Ram 3500 that has the built-in trailer tire monitoring system I’ll probably use that but since it’s have the TireLinc system I 5ought it would be nice to at least have it on the Compass Connect app.
 
My 2024 came with TireLinc and I quickly replaced it with a TST 507. I just couldn't get it to work.
 
The tech that did our PDI said not to waste money on it since it doesn’t work the majority of the time.

Luckily I didn’t pay separately for it. Now I’m really disappointed in the system. I can’t even use the little controller screen either. When I try to sync the sensors it only finds the left and right front sensors, not the rear ones at all, almost as if they aren’t even in the tires. Not only does it not find them by holding it on the opposite side of the valve stems but I tried all the way around the tire in case they were put on incorrectly. I spent a good hour or more trying to get them to sync. I guess this is why a lot of others just use a different system. Hopefully the ones that come with my new truck will work, plus they will be integrated with the truck screen.

I spent about a year, year and a half trying my best to get the tire linc system to work. Different version than yours, but sounds like same kind of frustration. Sensors dropping out or not recognized. Compass Connect sometimes dropping tire-linc altogether. Then there were times when tire-linc would lose comms with the sensors while on the road but not let me know. Other times it would alarm for a deflated tire...I'd stop and check but the tires were fine. At least once a day the tire-linc would lock up on my phone and needed the phone rebooted to get back to functioning. Totally unreliable.
Replaced with a TireMinder I10 system and my Tire-Linc induced TPMS anxiety is gone.
 
I gave up trying to get my system to sync last year using the control panel. This year I just took off the tire sensors and opened my phone app. I replaced each sensor one by one and the phone app detected it. Not sure why the thing doesn’t work trying to pair using the panel. I will be replacing the system when I get a new truck.
 
I've tried to get mine to work on my new Influence but no dice. Personally I think it is a range issue with the repeater. I have the sensors inside of my tires. I can hook up the tire linc module to 12v and learn all the sensors. Then I reconnect it to the forward wall in the cargo hole and they may stay connected for a day. Done this many times with the same result. I am buying something else.
 
I too had constant problems with the TireLinc not keeping connectivity and sounding an alarm. After two short trips I removed it and replaced with the TST I already had. No issues and I find TST easier to view and more user friendly.
 
Mine in a box total junk , buy something else you will thank me later

TST works awesome got my vote .
