Carrying Out the System Reset
Procedure

Read the entire procedure before carrying
out a system reset.

1.

Drive your vehicle above 20 mph (32
km/h) for at least two minutes and
then park in a safe location where you
can easily get to all four tires and have
access to a tire inflation pump.

2. Switch the ignition off.
3. Switch the ignition on with the engine

off.

4. Turn the hazard flashers on then off

three times, this must be completed
within 10 seconds. If the reset mode
has been entered successfully, the horn
will chirp once and the system indicator
will flash. If this does not occur, repeat
the procedure from step 2. If after
repeated attempts to enter the reset
mode, the horn does not chirp and the
system indicator does not flash, have
your vehicle checked by an authorized
dealer as soon as possible.

5. Train the system sensors in the tires

using the following reset sequence
starting with the left front tire and
following a clockwise order: Left front,
right front, right rear, left rear.

6. Remove the valve cap from the valve

stem on the left front tire. Decrease the
air pressure until the horn chirps.

Note: The single horn chirp confirms that
the sensor identification code has been
learned by your vehicle for this position. If a
double horn chirp is heard, the reset
procedure was unsuccessful and must be
repeated.

7.

Remove the valve cap from the valve
stem on the right front tire. Decrease
the air pressure until the horn chirps.

8. Remove the valve cap from the valve

stem on the right rear tire. Decrease the
air pressure until the horn chirps.

9. Remove the valve cap from the valve

stem on the left rear tire. Decrease the
air pressure until the horn chirps.
Training is complete when the horn
chirps after the last system sensor (left
rear) has been trained and the system
indicator stops flashing.

10.

Switch the ignition off. If two short
horn chirps are heard, the reset
procedure was unsuccessful and
must be repeated.

Note: If after repeating the procedure two
short horn chirps are heard again, have your
vehicle checked by an authorized dealer as
soon as possible.

11.

Set all four tires to the correct
pressure See Maintenance (page
177).
or the tire inflation pressure label
(located on the edge of driver door or
the B-Pillar).

CHANGING A ROAD WHEEL

WARNINGS

The use of tire sealants may damage
your tire pressure monitoring system
and should only be used in roadside

emergencies. If you must use a sealant, the
Ford Tire Mobility Kit sealant should be
used. The tire pressure monitoring system
sensor and valve stem on the wheel must
be replaced by an authorized dealer after
use of the sealant.

If the tire pressure monitor sensor
becomes damaged, it will no longer
function. See Tire Pressure

Monitoring System (page 226).

Note: The tire pressure monitoring system
indicator light will illuminate when the spare
tire is in use. To restore the full function of
the monitoring system, all road wheels
equipped with tire pressure monitoring
sensors must be mounted on the vehicle.
