TPMS Light

Been driving my 2016 F250 Lariat for over 3 years and have never seen the TPMS light come on. Isn't it supposed to illuminate when the key is turned on? I have had the sensors checked and yesterday the dealer tech hooked up his gizmo and said the sensors and tpms module are working, he could see pressure in all 4 but he didn't have the capability to check the dash light.

Yes, you should see all kinds of pretty lights at key on.

Make sure the tires are topped up properly check the tire placard in the door jam that is what your sensors are registered for your allowed 5 psi over and 5 psi under before the light comes on

Dropped a tire pressure way down and no light. Dealer has no listing for that bulb so it may mean a new cluster or live without it. I will need to pull the cluster to see how it is lit or if something fell off or broke. It was apart when newer as I had the harness connector problem early on under warranty. The dealer had a new tech work on it and said the only way to fix it was a new harness. They gutted the entire interior including the complete dashboard. 20000 later it did it again but I took care of it pretty easily, wiggle the connector and unclip it from the e-brake.

Hopefully it's something simple like a connector not fully seated. Those instrument clusters are expensive, let us know what you find.
