TPMS Indicator Flashes

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Lincoln Mark LT and 2007 Ford Pickup. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The TPMS indicator flashes for 70 seconds and then remains ON solid when the ignition key is turned to the ON position for the following conditions:

  1. Tire Pressure Sensor Fault - If equipped, the message center will display TIRE SENSOR FAULT when a tire pressure sensor is malfunctioning. Go to Symptom Chart .
  2. No communication with the VSM (TPMS is integral to the VSM) - The TPMS indicator is illuminated when the instrument cluster has received no signals from the VSM for more than 5 seconds. If equipped, the message center displays TIRE MONITOR FAULT. Go to Symptom Chart .
  3. Tire Pressure Monitor Fault - If equipped, the message center will display TIRE MONITOR FAULT when the tire pressure monitoring system is malfunctioning or communication with the instrument cluster has been lost. Go to Symptom Chart .
