How to Reset the TPMS Sensor on a Ford Expedition
To reset the TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) sensor on a Ford Expedition, you can follow these steps:
1. Ensure all four tires are inflated to the nominal pressure.
2. Set the parking brake.
3. Press the button to activate the TPMS sensor.
4. Repeat the process for the passenger side front tire, passenger side rear tire, and the driver side rear tire.
5. A chirp horn will confirm that the sensor has been reset.
6. Turn off the ignition after you reset the last tire.
These instructions are based on the Ford Expedition owner’s manual. It’s important to note that different model years may have slightly different procedures, so it’s always a good idea to consult the specific owner’s manual for your vehicle.
If you have recently replaced a wheel, tire, or TPMS sensor and are still getting a warning light on your car, it may indicate that the sensor needs to be reset. Following the steps above should help resolve the issue.
Please keep in mind that if you are unsure or uncomfortable performing the TPMS reset yourself, it is recommended to consult a professional or visit a Ford dealership for assistance.
