TPMS FORD E SERIES 2009 4.G User Guide

TPMS reset procedure (if applicable)
The TPMS reset tool is ONLY provided for vehicles with different
front and rear tire pressures. The TPMS reset procedure needs to
be performed after tire rotation only on these vehicles.
WARNING:To determine if your vehicle has different
recommended pressures for the front and rear tires, refer to the
Safety Compliance Certification Label or Tire Label which is located on
the B-Pillar or the edge of the driver’s door. SeeVehicle Loadingin
this chapter for more information.
Overview
To provide the vehicle’s load carrying capability, some trucks 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.
WARNING:Always perform the TPMS reset procedure after tire
rotation when recommended pressures are different for the front
and rear tires.
TPMS reset tool
A special TPMS reset tool to reset your TPMS after tire rotation is
provided with vehicles that have different front and rear tire pressures.
The tool is located with your Owner’s Guide materials.

Please take the tool with the
provided Velcrostrip on the back
and mount it in the bottom right
corner of your Owner’s Guide case
(as shown) for safe keeping.
If you find that the reset tool was not provided when delivered, has been
lost or no longer functions (the battery is not replaceable), please
contact your authorized dealer as soon as possible to obtain a
replacement.
To verify that your TPMS reset tool is working, press and release the
button on the center of the TPMS tool. The red light should illuminate
and remain on for approximately five (5) seconds. If the light does not
illuminate, the tool needs to be replaced.
TPMS reset tips:
•To reduce the chances of interference from another vehicle, TPMS
reset should be performed at least three feet (one 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.
TPMS reset procedure
It is recommended that you read the entire procedure before attempting.
Note:To enter the reset mode, Steps 1–6 MUST be completed within
60 seconds.

NOTstart the engine.
If the reset mode has been entered successfully, the horn will sound
once, the TPMS indicator
will flash and the message center will
displayTRAIN LEFT FRONT TIRE.
If after repeated attempts to enter the reset mode, the horn does not
sound, the TPMS indicator
does not flash and the message center
does not displayTRAIN LEFT FRONT TIRE, contact your authorized
dealer as soon as possible.

7. Train the TPMS sensors in the tires using the following TPMS reset
sequence starting with theleft front tirein the following clockwise
order:
1. Left front tire (Front driver’s side)
2. Right front tire (Front passenger’s side)
3. Right rear tire (Rear passenger’s side)
4. Left rear tire (Rear driver’s side)
8.Left front tire:Place the TPMS reset tool against the left front tire
where the tire meets the rim, opposite from the valve stem (1) as shown.
This is where the sensor is located inside the rim.
The tool needs to be held against the tire sidewall opposite the
valve stem as illustrated with the arrow on the tool pointing
towards the rim; do not use the tool with the arrow pointing away
from the rim as it may not activate the sensor.
9. Press and release the green button and hold the tool to the tire
sidewall until the horn sounds. The red light on the TPMS reset tool will
illuminate while the tool is active. The horn will sound once within
10 seconds to indicate the process was successful.
Note:
•If a double horn chirp is heard, repeat the procedure. If a single horn
chirp is not heard, move the vehicle to rotate the wheels at least a
14-turn and repeat the procedure starting with Step 1.
•If a double horn chirp is heard even after the wheels were
repositioned, contact your authorized dealer as soon as possible.

CHANGING THE TIRES
If you get a flat tire while driving, do not apply the brake heavily.
Instead, gradually decrease your speed. Hold the steering wheel firmly
and slowly move to a safe place on the side of the road.
Note:The tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) indicator light will
illuminate when the spare tire is in use. To restore the full functionality
of the monitoring system, all road wheels equipped with tire pressure
monitoring sensors must be mounted on the vehicle.
Have a flat serviced by an authorized dealer in order to prevent damage
to the TPMS sensors, refer toTire pressure monitoring system
(TPMS)in theTires, Wheels and Loadingchapter. Replace the spare

tire with a road tire as soon as possible. During repairing or replacing of
the flat tire, have the authorized dealer inspect the TPMS sensor for
damage.
WARNING:The use of tire sealants may damage your Tire
Pressure Monitoring System and should not be used.
WARNING:Refer toTire pressure monitoring system (TPMS)
in theTires, Wheels and Loadingchapter for important
information. If the tire pressure monitor sensor becomes damaged, it
will no longer function.
Dissimilar spare tire/wheel information
WARNING:Failure to follow these guidelines could result in an
increased risk of loss of vehicle control, injury or death.
If you have a dissimilar spare tire/wheel, then it is intended for
temporary use only. This means that if you need to use it, you should
replace it as soon as possible with a road tire/wheel that is the same size
and type as the road tires and wheels that were originally provided by
Ford. If the dissimilar spare tire or wheel is damaged, it should be
replaced rather than repaired.
A dissimilar spare tire/wheel is defined as a spare tire and/or wheel that
is different in brand, size or appearance from the road tires and wheels
and can be one of three types:
1.T-type mini-spare:This spare tire begins with the letter “T” for tire
size and may have “Temporary Use Only” molded in the sidewall
2.Full-size dissimilar spare with label on wheel:This spare tire has
a label on the wheel that states: “THIS TIRE AND WHEEL FOR
TEMPORARY USE ONLY”
When driving with one of the dissimilar spare tires listed above,do not:
•Exceed 50 mph (80 km/h)
•Load the vehicle beyond maximum vehicle load rating listed on the
Safety Compliance Label
•Tow a trailer
•Use snow chains on the end of the vehicle with the dissimilar spare
tire
