04 Expy question - low tire warning light?

Being all new to this, I was reading through the user manual (quiet night!). I do not believe that my car has the "Tire Pressure System" fitted (although I'm not sure how to find out if it does). However, the manual mentions the "Low Tire Warning" lamp without mentioning "if equipped". When I turn the ignition on, I do not see this lamp light up.



The manual says "If this light fails to illuminate when ignition is turned to ON, continues to flash or remains on, have the system serviced immediately." Am I correct in assuming I need to get it to the dealer ASAP?

Just take your VIN # and go to Ford and have them tell you the options on your vehicle. It may also be listed on the inside of your drivers side door with a code.

i think i can only help you with the question of," do i have tire pressure system." go look at your valve stems, if they are silver in color, it is my understanding that indicates the tire pressure monitoring system. hope this helps.
later,

Therein lies my problem - no light comes on. The manual says it should, but says nothing about only if you have the Tire Pressure System installed. I guess I'll swing it by the dealer on the weekend for them to take a look.
