Tire Pressure Light Wont Go Off


Recommended Posts

Posted

I cant get the tire pressure light to go off, ive checked the tires with a guage and even over inflated to see if it would go off. It is driving me nuts If I cant figure out how to fix the problem can I just disconect the system? I would rather just check the tire pressure myself the old fashioned way.

Have you driven any since you checked the pressure? It usually takes a few miles to reset the sensors. If thats not it, make sure your spare has the right pressure in it for the rear tires. Had the same problem on my 08 F350 work truck. If thats not it, I dont know.

Most likely one of the sensors in a tire has malfunctioned or the battery in it died. There should be no sensor in the spare.

 

 

The DIC says its the drivers right, ive had this problem for months. Where is a battery? or how do you relearn?

The battery for the sensor is located inside the tire. It is a device that is connected to the valve stem. The learning procedures are located in your owners manual.

Theres no sensor in the spare.

 

 

 

Instead of wasting time on the manual method, just go to a good tire shop they have a tool and usually do it for free.

If you can't find a tire store to do it, try Costco. They did mine for $4. Took them about 10 minutes because they didn't believe the manual re-learn wouldn't work on mine and tried it themselves before they pulled out their diagnosis/re-learn tool.

 

BTW, the DIC on my 1500 will also give a warning light on pressures above 46 psi. I know because I have load range E tires and have run them above 46 psi when heavily loaded.

I do the manual relearn on mine everytime I rotate tires which is every time I change the oil. Takes 10 minutes, but I have access to compressor/air.
