    Reese if u pull the sensors and they still leak............
    I have a local tire shop that still uses the big round galvanized pool they put mounted tires underwater in to find leaks. They have a hydraulic ram with fingers that push it under and hold it. I bet there r also local tire shops in your neighborhood who have them. Call around find a place and put the tires in the dip tank u will for sure get to the bottom of it.

    Great advice! Love seeing the help that is so readily and knowledgeably offered...with nothing but the intent to help! The rest of society could stand to learn from the examples provided in this forum and community. Can’t wait until we have our coach (heading out this weekend to make selection from several)!

    This will not be your problem since one of them is the outside dual. However, my inside drives are steel wheels and the tire shop that Fort Worth Prevost called showed them that it was actually the old wheels that were leaking.

    Reece,

    Remove the sensors and then see what you have. I’m repeating myself from the other side, but for those not familiar with Pressure Pro, the only sensor leaks I’ve had in many years was with 2 sensors that I checked myself and found a leak at the seams. These caused a very slow leak and I replaced under warranty. The one with the underside leak was hard to find.

    I had the same issue on inner drive wheels. The extenders were the problem.

    Fratto,
    Which tire shop did Ft. Worth Prevost refer you to? I will probably need to contact them. Thank you for your reply.
