Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Indicator Illuminates Continuously

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Mercury Milan, 2010 Lincoln MKZ, and 2010 Ford Fusion. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: For vehicles with different front and rear tire pressures (such as E-Series and certain F-Series), the tire pressure sensors must be trained following a tire rotation. Failure to train the sensors will result in a false low tire pressure event, which will cause the TPMS  indicator to illuminate.
  1. The TPMS  indicator remains on continuously for the following condition:
    • Low Tire Pressure - The TPMS  indicator is illuminated solid and the message center displays LOW TIRE PRESSURE (if equipped). This is displayed when any of the tire pressures are low. When this condition exists, the tire pressure must be adjusted to the recommended cold pressure as indicated on the VC  label.
  2. NOTE: The TPMS  sensors do not transmit when the vehicle is stationary. If the vehicle has been stationary for more than 30 minutes, it will be necessary to wake up the sensors so they will transmit the latest tire pressure information to the SJB  .
  3. If the vehicle has been stationary for more than 30 minutes, carry out the TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS) SENSOR ACTIVATION  procedure.
