2020 FORD TRANSIT sensor

Tire Rotation
WARNING: If the tire label
shows different tire pressures for
the front and rear tires and the
vehicle has a tire pressure
monitoring system, then you
need to update the settings for
the system sensors. Always
perform the system reset
procedure after tire rotation. If
you do not reset the system, it
may not provide a low tire
pressure warning when
necessary.
Rotating the tires at the
recommended interval detailed in
the Scheduled Maintenance
chapter will help the tires wear
more evenly, providing better tire
performance and longer tire life.
Sometimes irregular tire wear can
be corrected by rotating the tires.
Note: After rotating the tires the
inflation pressure must be checked
and adjusted to the vehicle
requirements.
Note: If the tires show uneven
wear ask an authorized dealer to
check for and correct any wheel
misalignment, tire imbalance or
mechanical problem involved
before tire rotation. Note:
Your vehicle may have a
dissimilar spare wheel and tire
assembly. A dissimilar spare wheel
and tire assembly is defined as a
spare wheel and tire assembly that
is different in brand, size or
appearance from the road tires and
wheels. If you have a dissimilar
spare wheel and tire assembly it is
intended for temporary use only
and should not be used in a tire
rotation.

SYSTEM
(IF EQUIPPED) WARNING:
The tire pressure
monitoring system is not a substitute for
manually checking tire pressures. You
should periodically check tire pressures
using a pressure gauge. Failure to
correctly maintain tire pressures could
increase the risk of tire failure, loss of
control, vehicle rollover and personal
injury. WARNING: Do not use tire sealants
as they may damage the tire pressure
monitoring system. WARNING:
If the tire pressure
monitor sensor becomes damaged it
may not function.

2020 Transit (TTH) Canada/United States of America, LK3J 19A321 HA enUSA, Edition date: 201911, First-Printing Wheels and Tires

If the vehicle is stationary overnight and
the temperature significantly lower than
the daytime temperature, tire pressures
may decrease by up to 3 psi (0.2 bar) when
there is a drop in the ambient temperature
of 63°F (17°C) or more. The system
detects this pressure decrease as being
significantly below the correct inflation
pressure and the warning lamp illuminates.
When Inflating Tires WARNING:
Do not use the tire
pressure displayed in the information
display as a tire pressure gauge. Failure
to follow this instruction could result in
personal injury or death.
When inflating the tires the system may
not respond immediately to the air added
to the tires.
Only inflate tires when they are cold.
If the warning lamp is on:
• Check each tire to verify that none are
flat.
• If one or more tires are flat, repair as
necessary.
• Check the tire pressures and inflate all
tires to the correct pressure.
• Carry out the tire pressure monitoring
system reset procedure. When Changing Tires You should always have tires serviced by
an authorized dealer.
Note:
Each road wheel and tire is fitted with
a tire pressure sensor located inside the
wheel and tire assembly cavity. The pressure
sensor attaches to the valve stem. The tire
covers the pressure sensor and it is not
visible unless the tire is removed. Take care
when changing the tire to avoid damaging
the sensor.
When Changing Wheels
When changing the wheels of your vehicle,
the tire pressure monitoring system needs
to re-learn the tire pressure sensors. To
achieve this perform the following:
1. Make sure all tires are inflated to the proper pressure. If not, inflate the tires
to the correct pressure.
2. Park your vehicle for at least 20 minutes.
3. Carry out the tire pressure monitoring system reset procedure.
4. The tire pressure monitoring system will automatically re-learn the tire
pressure sensors the next time you
drive your vehicle for approximately 15
minutes above 40km/h (25 mph).

Tire Pressure Monitoring System
Reset Procedure
Overview
WARNING: To determine the
required pressure(s) for your vehicle, see
the Safety Compliance Certification
Label (on the door hinge pillar,
door-latch post or the door edge that
meets the door-latch post, next to the
driver seat) or the Tire Label on the
B-Pillar or the edge of the driver door.
You must carry out the system reset
procedure after each tire replacement or
adjustment of the tire pressures. To maintain your vehicle load carrying
capability, your vehicle requires different
tire pressures in the front tires compared
to the rear tires.
The system illuminates the warning lamp
at different pressures for the front and rear
tires.
If the tires are rotated, the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System needs to be reset to
relearn the new tire pressures. It does not
know which sensor is where and assumes
you have set the pressures correctly.
Carrying Out the System Reset
Procedure
Switch the ignition on. Using the
information display control select: Action
Message
Press the
OK button.
