Resetting the tyre pressure warning light on your Ford

Most UK Fords (Fiesta, Focus, Puma, Kuga and others) use an indirect deflation detection system. Some, such as the S-Max, Galaxy and Transit Connect, have sensors in the wheels. Ford asks for a reset after inflating either way.

  1. Set all four tyres to the correct cold pressure, with the car parked. It won't reset while moving.
  2. Switch the ignition on.
  3. Using the steering-wheel controls, open Settings on the dashboard display and find the tyre item. It's called Deflation detection, Tyre Monitor or Tyre Pressure, depending on the model.
  4. Press and hold OK until the reset is confirmed.

When to reset: Reset after adjusting pressures or changing tyres. On sensor models, after new sensors or a tyre rotation, park for 20 minutes first; they relearn in about 15 minutes of driving.

Menu names vary by model and year, so check your handbook if yours looks different. More in what the warning light means.
