I have a new 2015 F350 6.2. I purchased new take off tires and rims from same truck privately to use as summer tires. Installed them and drove for 20-30 miles and the tire warning light came on. Did some reading and tried using the manual "re learn" the tires. Using procedure in manual I cannot get past first tire and I time out. So, I bought the tire tool TPMS 19 and tried the re learn and no difference. Cannot get past first tire before time out. Any opinions on whats wrong.

 

You definitely have the tpms valves in the new tires - right?

I use separate winter and summer tires on my 2011 F350 and have never done anything other than stick them on. I did not reprogram anything. The message should stop after a few weeks.

 

Comparing to the original they externally look identical. I see no evidence that the person I bought these off had the sensors removed. He told me caps, lugs, sensors as new.

 

Put one of the original tires on and see if it program.

 

Figured it out. My manual clear outlines the procedure using the 4 way flashers to get you to the screen directing you to go to the left front tire. Ford parts guy tried the "old" method of cycling the key and stepping on the brake.......done deal. Ford manual is a POS and completely misdirected me and wasted hours of my time.

 

Most tire places will do it for you, i know discount tire does it for free
