How do you activate a Ford TPMS sensor?

To activate a Ford TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) sensor, you can follow these steps:
1. Make sure your tires are properly inflated to the recommended psi.
2. Turn the ignition to the “on” position. If your vehicle has a push-button start, press the start button without pressing the brake pedal.
3. Press the hazard light button six times. You should hear a horn honk, and the LCD display between the tachometer and speedometer should show “Train left front tire”.
Please note that this method is specific to certain Ford models and may not work for all vehicles. If you’re unsure or need more detailed instructions, it’s recommended to consult your vehicle’s owner’s manual or contact a Ford dealership for assistance.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.
