TPMS reset procedure

The TPMS reset procedure needs to be performed after each tire

rotation on vehicles that require different recommended tire

pressures in the front tires as compared to the rear tires.

WARNING: To determine the required pressure(s) for your

vehicle – refer to the Safety Compliance Certification Label or

Tire Label located on the B-Pillar or the edge of the driver’s door. See

Vehicle loading - with and without a trailer in this chapter for more

information.

Overview

Note: Before performing either of the TPMS reset procedures below

refer to Changing tires with TPMS earlier in this section to familiarize

yourself with the type of wheels and pressure sensors on your vehicle.

To provide the vehicle’s load carrying capability, some vehicles require

different recommended tire pressures in the front tires as compared to

the rear tires. The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) equipped on

these vehicles is designed to illuminate the Low Tire Pressure Warning

indicator at two different pressures; one for the front tires and one for

the rear tires.

Since tires need to be rotated to provide consistent performance and

maximum tire life, the Tire Pressure Monitoring System needs to know

when the tires are rotated to determine which set of tires are on the

front and which are on the rear. With this information, the system can

detect and properly warn of low tire pressures.

TPMS reset tips:

• To reduce the chances of interference from another vehicle, the TPMS

reset procedure should be performed at least 3 feet (1 meter) away

from another Ford Motor Company vehicle undergoing the TPMS reset

procedure at the same time.

• Do not wait more than two (2) minutes between resetting each tire

sensor or the system will timeout and the entire procedure will have

to be repeated on all four wheels.

• A double horn chirp indicates the need to repeat the procedure.

Note: Two TPMS reset procedures are given below: one for tires with

snap-in sensors and one for tires with banded sensors.
