How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light (TPMS) on a Ford Transit Connect
Steps from the 2018 Ford Transit Connect owner's manual.
- Drive above 20 mph (32 km/h) for at least two minutes, then park where you can reach all four tires.
- Switch the ignition off, then on with the engine off.
- Turn the hazard flashers on then off three times within 10 seconds; the horn chirps once and the system indicator flashes.
- Remove the valve cap on the left front tire and decrease the air pressure until the horn chirps.
- Repeat on the right front, right rear, then left rear tire, waiting for a chirp at each.
- Switch the ignition off, then set all four tires to the correct pressure.
- Do this after every tire rotation, and after tire replacement only when the sensor stays the same.
- Do not wait more than two minutes between tires, or the procedure must be repeated on all four wheels.
- A double horn chirp means the reset failed and must be repeated.
