    Valor TPMS

    Hi Everyone. I apologize for the delay in responding but was having computer issues over the weekend. I also apologize for any issue you may be having with your Valor TPMS System. What I have read is an intermittent dropping of sensor readings and normally this is caused by an antenna issue...

    Need To Adjust Alarm Settings

    To reset the baseline, on the back of the display is a small reset button. Once you have the proper air pressure in all the tires, press and hold the reset button for about 8 seconds. The display will beep and all numbers on front will disappear and go to 00.0. The next pressure the display...

    No instructions for install on truck

    Dave. Thanks for pointing out the location of the instructions. Jim Beletti had posted it there a short while ago. Valor is in the process of rewriting all our manuals and installation instructions. Once completed, I will send to Jim to post the updated versions.

    Valor TPMS

    Yes you can use the same antenna. The only difference is you will have to replace the chips in the display with the chips that come with your 365. The chips are specific to the sensors installed in the wheels. Once you change to the new chips, you will have to reset baseline for the new...

    New Vendor Monitored Forum - Valor TPMS

    Congratulations on your recent purchase of the 365. The antenna is not connected to the Fifth Wheel. The coax cable runs from the display under the truck to beneath the 2" receiver. I believe that the antenna that came with the kit may not be long enough to reach all the way back so I will...

    Temperature/Pressure differences

    Murray During testing at Goodyear when the tires are in the identical environment and no differences or external factors then the temp is within 1 degree. When tires are parked, there are so many things affecting the resting temp, from shade and sun to wind and external heat sources. When...

    Valor tpms monitor not working

    Dave10a Can you please call me? I am curious about the 50 Ohm coax you added. If it fixed you system great and I would like to use it as a fix for other RVers. (And I can take credit for it) Don

    TPMS dropping sensors during transit

    Murry135 - thank you for the kind words and the endorsement. I agree with everything you said. I did mention in part of this thread about a customer (non-Heartland) I have who experienced a brake hang up on this Fifth Wheel and the Valor display notified him. He was able to pull over and...

    TPMS dropping sensors during transit

    I cannot speak for my competition and how their system reports low pressure or how quickly they notify the driver. But the Valor sensor monitors pressure and temperature every 4 seconds and reports to the display every 10-16 seconds. If there is an issue, the Valor monitor responds immediately...

    TPMS dropping sensors during transit

    That may work when the trailer is stopped. However, blow outs occur while you are driving on the road. Thumping the tires with your mag light at 55 MPH is difficult. The safety and cost effectiveness of the monitoring system pays for itself if it saves 1 blowout. According to the National...

    TPMS dropping sensors during transit

    I apologize, my answer was not complete. The Valor system is 100% programmed to 433.92 mHz. Our antennas and sensors are synced to the FCC frequency. The system we supply to Heartland is the same Heavy Duty quality we offer to the Commercial and Mining industry which is a very harsh...

    TPMS dropping sensors during transit

    This is Don from Valor. I would like to clarify many of the messages received concerning dropped sensors. Manzan referenced the 507 which is the external system provided by TST. I cannot address their issue. However, the original message from EPaulikonis is the Valor system and I am working...
