TPMS camera video cable length?
Thanks Can someone please tell me how long the video cable is on the TPMS kit (HC3Z-19G490-J)?
i called the parts desk at my local dealer and they can’t tell me.
My trailer is ~41’ long and ~13’ tall. So I’m thinking I need about about 60’ of cable?

Are you planning both TPMS & Camera? Ford says the Ultimate Camera is a must for these add-ons.
You can get the combo TPMS/Camera as a kit.

TPMS solo: https://accessories.ford.com/exterio...ms-sensor.html
YouTube has some videos on installation.
Some go over the top of the trailer with the wire, others ran along the ladder then underneath the trailer.

I put this kit on my trailer, trailer is roughly 44'. Since the cable too short to make it to the top, I mounted it above the license plate at the bottom. Works fine, if anything, it's easier to judge how close I am to ground level things while backing up.

My trailer is only 32' so when the time comes I can mount it high to see my boat behind the 5'er.

Thanks guys.
Yes, doing camera too.
I found this extension cable from one of the threads here talking about a better way to mount the 12 pin connector.
My trailer has pre-wired power on top so I’ll probably stick with the top mount, with this I hope the signal doesn’t suffer without about a 12’ extension.

Wanting to do the 12-pin in the bed for 5th Wheel camera only. That way my 4-pin on the bumper is still available for the boat & wheeler trailers.
Now if I can figure out how to get a cable through my pin-box on the Reflection.
Thanks.
