TST

We just had to pull over as I had an alarm sound on the TST TPMS. The pressure is fine but the temp went to 280 something. I found a spot to park and checked everything out and it appears fine. Not hot to touch. I reset the monitor and it's not finding all the sensors. I'm not sure what to think. I guess I'll push on and see what happens. Of course it's in the front right.

Phil is it sensing low battery in the sensor.

Phil,
Call TST and explain the problem to them and see if they can offer any assistance. (770) 889-9102.

Thanks for the number Tom. I talked to them and she thinks it's a sensor battery issue. I have had the system for 16 months and haven't changed the battery. I thought they were good for two years. Not the case. One year or less dependent on use. I'll have to find some batteries.

Phil,
Should be able to get the batteries pretty much anywhere that sells batteries. They are a fairly standard size.

This may be correct but if you are on the road travelling, I'm sure Phil would like to replace the battery as soon as possible. I know I would.

I carry 10 spares in the container I made to hold the sensors so I can change them anytime. Order 10 or 20 spares Energizers on eBay about every year or 2.

What's up with Radio Shack they closed all ours up north saying Corp went bankrupt. I saw one in Ohio open and think I saw one in SC.

Funny, the right front on the toad was running over badly yesterday. I figure it's the sensor going bad. All my batts are fresh. Going to swap LF and LR sensors and see if the overheat moves.

Boowho??

Alright we stopped for the night and are camping at the local Walmart. Thanks to everyone that offered a fix. The tech agrees with Wayne that the batteries are low. I didn't get a low battery warning that I should have so its not a sure fix. She wants me to install new batteries and relocate my booster. She said that with out the booster the batteries run out faster. Makes sense. Sorry I didn't post sooner but I don't text and drive.

Anybody remember what batteries the TST takes. I think she said A1365? I couldn't write it down. Maybe cl1350? I guess I can take one apart.

The 507 sensors operate utilizing a CR1632 battery which is readily available and easy to change.

Phil just copied this not sure if those are the sensors that you have.

Phil you should have gotten a low battery indicator. Unless it was really low but I would think you wouldn't get any reading.
