Anyone with a 2024 install the TPMS and rear trailer camera?

[Bobcatou]

I'm about the pull the trigger on getting the TPMS and rear trailer camera. I found these instructions online for installing everything on a 2022. I'm wondering if there any unknown things for the 2024 that might not have been updated. This is the item. https://www.ford.com/product/trailer-tpms-monitor-with-camera-and-tpms-p2905856924

Did you buy the kit yet? I have a brand new, never used kit for $750 for sale. I know everything about it. Installed it on my 2021 F-150 and now my 2024 F-150.

Sorry...I'm using points and a recall coupon code Ford gave me for a recall to cover most of my costs.

I'm thinking your's might be a little different too. The one listed says for a 2022-25. Not 2021. Not sure what changed.

Im in same boat and have been eyeing this for a while. Been wondering how well the trailer pro system works with just the stickers on the trailer. Clearly wouldnt have camera on. Has anyone tried?

Totally get it. I use my points the same way, but nothing is different between the products. If you look at compatibility chart they only showed it was for a Superduty and no F-150 before 22 because of the 9 pin cable. My 21 F-150 didn’t have the correct cable so I had to get it from the dealer, but I had the exact same kit. My 24 was good to go from the factory. The only thing you need to get is A TPMS relearn tool when setting the TPMS up.

I have the stickers on my Airstream Basecamp camper and they work pretty well. Not perfect and buggy from time to time, but do work most of the time. Generally there can be issues if you are not on a flat surface. If for offered to pay me back the cost of the system to remove the stickers and take the system out, I wouldn't take the offer.

You are right. I looked at the product number and it is the same as your's.

The instructions I found on the web, (Posted above) stated you calibrate the TPMS by letting out air rather than using the fob. Brother has a fob, so no a big deal. Good to know.

FOB is 1000% easier. BTW you will notice that it looks like you need to relearn the TPMS every time you start pulling the trailer but as soon as you start driving they will update in the instrument cluster.

Thanks for the tip.

Does the screen come up on it's own after you plug in new plug in the back of the truck. I see I am replacing the 4 pin with a new plug, plus I think there is another connector under the frame that I need to attach to.

Setup looks fairly straight forward...just the headaches of wiring camera, cable and module.

Yes, it will come up just like when you attach a trailer to the bargman plug the dash tells you a trailer is plugged in.

Is the camera IP rated? Waterproof/submersible. I'm thinking of putting this on my boat trailer.

I;m not sure about submersible, it’s got to be weatherproof, but waterproof or submersible, I doubt it.

There's a video somewhere on the forum of a guy who put the camera mounted on bottom of his boat trailer. He has video from it submerging when he launches the boat lol

I wouldn't submerge it. I just installed mine and had to take the case apart because the locking nut to the screw slipped from it's spot. Honestly there wasn't much of a seal on the casing and I will probably keep an eye on it. I might figure a way to water protect the camera and case better too.
