since 2006 ( I think ! )
I have a TC125 system that has been fitted for a couple of years
In February I started getting false alarms
I have replaced all the batteries in the sensors ( alarms coming from all wheels randomly )
In desperation I set the alarm parameters very wide ( 30psi to 90psi ) but still the same
Anyone got any ideas ?
 
Are you losing pressure? I had a sensor issue which I solved by getting new seals for the tyrepal sensor, the tiny ones inside the unit. They are a pain to get out though. If not losing pressure it’s a calibration issue which tyrepal should be able to advise on.
 
Jaws John, are you sure it's not the tyre temperature going out of range rather than the tyre pressures that are setting the alarms off?
No mate.. all staying where they should be :)

This started happening in February and has continued through all sorts of temperatures

Def not loosing pressures.. I have one rim that tends to go down over several weeks but that has been the same for the past 8 years and three tyres ! :)

TyrePal uses 433.92 MHz, is there anything you're using that might be interfering around that?
Oddly ( for most but not us know it all posh gits ) the thought did cross my mind and I dug out my sniffer and even borrowed a spectrum analyser to see if anything odd was going on.. all came back blank

Knowing how reliable the units are normally I suspect user error somewhere but am baffled..
I have been on the TyrePal web site and filled out the form, plus, as requested, sent them an e-mail
Sadly TyrePal have been their usual recalcitrant self when it comes to customer care and so far have ignored all
