Just the obvious-- have you diode isolated the outputs of both sensors? (Diode stripes should both face sensors).

Have you grounded both sensors to a fairly strong ground? I would take the ground-when-armed output to a relay, and then both proxy and tilt to chassis ground through that relay. (85-- 12V, 86-- ground-when-armed, 30-- chassis ground, 87-- to both sensors' grounds).

I'm not familiar w/ the 550, but is it possible to put them both on different zones? If that is possible, try doing that.

Hope this helps,

Me
