Tire TPMS light will not go off

2013 F350 SRW . Pressure is correct . Anything special you need to do to make the light go away ?

When you say the light won't go off, does it flash or on constantly? Did you check your owner's manual to a possible solution?

Possible causes from 2015 Manual light on solid

Tire(s) under-inflated
Spare tire in use
Tire pressure monitoring system malfunction
Tire rotation without sensor training

Light flashing

Spare tire in use
Tire pressure monitoring system malfunction

Did you recently have new tires installed or a flat fixed where the tire was removed from the rim?

Did you recently acquire and start to use a new or different cellphone charger?

Not enough information?

Back tires are 80 psi and the front are 65 psi.

Did the the light come on and then you added air?

On page 364 of the manual it will tell you how to perform a TPMS reset.

You need to bring them all to 80 psi and drive it for about five minutes or so and the light should reset. Then you can bring the fronts back to 65.

Last Monday Texas had a brief ice storm . I was responding to a MVA early that morning and the light came on . This same thing happened during the last time we had snow but went out after a couple of days . I did add about 5 psi to each tire . Will bring them all up to 80 psi and try that . Thanks for all the info. First time to post .

tpms

Kind of funny but my 07 cheby work truck shows what tire is low and it a two wheel drive stripo but my 13Ford lariat only tells you one of your tires is low. I think they just want you to check all of them

I added about 5 psi to each one after the light came on but did not bring the rears to 80 psi . Will do that in the morning before I leave for work . We are suppose to get more sleet & snow tomorrow afternoon . Hopefully this will get reset . Wow 2 weeks in a row in Texas with winter weather .

The fronts are also80 psi sensors even though your door might say 65 so make sure all are at 80. Once light is out then adjust. Hope it works

You will have to drive a bit to have the light go out. I have 70 psi in the rear tires when not loaded and 65 psi in the front tires all the time. I program my tires for 65 psi all the time.

I see the newer models even tell you what tire is low. I use the phone App, Torque Pro and it tells me the pressure of each tire.

Also check the tire pressure on the spare itself as it may be sending a signal if low.

I don't believe that the OEM Spare on a 2013 has a sensor?

the 2015 trucks spare does have a sensor. I was doing rie rotations and ran to the store in the middle and left the spare in the driveway. as soon as i hit the bottom of the drive, the light came on. it went off after i restarted with the spare remounted.

How would the sensor work on the spare? Don't these sensors need tire rotation to work?

This has been my understanding that the power to the sensor comes from the tire spinning....


when I went to 37" BFG's on factory rims on my 2012 If I remember the tires were 50 psi and light stayed on all the time.. bought a sheet of black window cling and cut out a clean quarter sized circle and stuck it on the cluster lense to block the light... then when I was at dealer on day they did a reset to 50psi and problem solved
