Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Reset Procedure

If you’ve purchased a Ford vehicle recently, it’s pretty likely that your car is equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) that continually monitors psi readings in all four tires. The system works by using sophisticated sensors that are attached to the valve stem. If you’ve gotten a tire rotation done lately, you may notice your TPMS display has the tire positions all out of whack. Because the sensors are located inside each tire, you may have to reset the Tire Pressure Monitoring System and help it relearn the new positions of your tire sensors.

Getting Started: Before you begin, you will need to drive your vehicle above 20 mph for at least two minutes. Then park in a safe location where you will have access to an air pump.


Ford Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Reset Instructions

There are two parts to resetting your Ford vehicle’s Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPSM). For this process you will need to:
(1) activate TPMS reset mode and (2) re-train each of your vehicle’s tire pressure sensors.

Part 1: Activating Tire Pressure Monitoring System Reset Mode
  1. Place the ignition in the off position and keep the key in the ignition.
  2. Without starting the engine, turn your key to the ON position.
  3. Quickly switch the hazard flashers on then off 3x.

Note: Once your vehicle enters TPMS reset mode, the horn will sound once and a message will appear in the information display. If this does not occur, repeat the sequence.

Part 2: Re-Training Your Tire Pressure Sensors
  1. Decrease the air pressure in the driver-side front tire until the horn sounds once.
  2. Decrease the air pressure in the passenger-side front tire until the horn sounds once.
  3. Decrease the air pressure in the passenger-side rear tire until the horn sounds once.
  4. Decrease the air pressure in the driver-side rear tire until the horn sounds once.
  5. Turn the ignition off.

Note: If at any point in the re-training process two short horn beeps are heard, the reset procedure was unsuccessful. Please try repeating the sequence from PART 1: Activating TPMS Reset Mode.

How to reset low tire pressure light on Ford F-150

The tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) on Ford F-150 measures the vehicle’s tire pressures. A warning lamp illuminates if one or more tires are significantly underinflated or if there is a system malfunction.

Ford F-150 14th generation

As an added safety feature, Ford F-150 has been equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure light when one or more of your tires is significantly under-inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure light illuminates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s handling and stopping ability.

Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires).

The label is either on the B-pillar or the edge of the driver door on Ford F-150. Vehicles exported outside the US and Canada may not have a tire and loading label. – (Ford F-150 14th generation shown)

Resetting TPMS on F-150

You must reset the tire pressure monitoring system after each tire rotation on F-150 vehicles that require different recommended tire pressures in the front tires as compared to the rear tires.

To reduce the chances of interference from another vehicle, perform the system reset procedure at least three feet, one meter, away from another vehicle undergoing the system reset procedure at the same time.

Do not wait more than two minutes between resetting each tire sensor or the system can time-out and you need to repeat the entire procedure on all four wheels.

  1. Drive the vehicle above 20 mph (32 km/h) for at least two minutes, then park in a safe location where you can easily get to all four tires and have access to an air pump.
  2. Switch the ignition off.
  3. Switch the ignition on but do not start the engine.
  4. Switch the hazard flashers on then off three times.
    Note: You must accomplish this within 10 seconds. If you successfully enter the reset mode, the horn sounds once, the system indicator flashes and a message shows in the information display.
    Note: If the system does not enter reset mode, try again starting at Step 2. If after repeated attempts to enter the reset mode, the horn does not sound, the system indicator does not flash and no message shows in the information display, contact your authorized dealer.
  5. Remove the valve cap from the valve stem on the left front tire. Decrease the air pressure until the horn sounds.
    Note: The single horn tone confirms that the sensor identification code has been learned by the module for this position. If the horn sounds twice, the reset procedure was unsuccessful, and you must repeat it.
  6. Remove the valve cap from the valve stem on the right front tire. Decrease the air pressure until the horn sounds.
  7. Repeat the previous step on the right rear tire and then on the left rear tire.
  8. Switch the ignition off.
    Note: If the horn sounds twice again after switching the ignition off, and repeating the procedure, contact your authorized dealer and have your vehicle checked as soon as possible.
  9. Set all four tires to the recommended air pressure as indicated on the Safety Compliance Certification Label.

Tire Pressure Sensor Fault

When the malfunction indicator is illuminated on Ford F-150, the system may not be able to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including the installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS from functioning properly.

  • Regularly checking the vehicle tire pressures can reduce the possibility for the warning lamp to illuminate due to outside air temperature changes.
  • After you inflate the tires to the recommended pressure it could take up to two minutes of driving over 20 mph (32 km/h) for the warning indicator to turn off.
