I see the Ford kit is around $500 but I have also viewed a video where the implication was that I would simply buy 4 Ford compatible TPMS devices, put them in the tires and train the truck to recognize them.

Also Ford keeps mentioning this wiring harness???

Does anyone have experience doing this kind of thing and if so can you enlighten me?

Thanks

There is a lot of confusion about this system; the information I got from my dealer was wrong. Long read, but you might want to take a look at this:

The Ford trailer TPMS is not wireless. You will need the kit that includes the wiring harness and the sensors. https://www.fordgenuineautoparts.com...8aAm3oEALw_wcB

The wiring harness does double duty and is necessary if you also install the Ford trailer mounted back up camera.

After researching it and finding out that neither the Ford camera nor the Ford TPMS were wireless, I decided to go back to the TST wireless TPMS and Furrion wireless back up camera that I took off my old truck.
