Question Tire Pressure Sensor

Is there a simple way to tell if my 2007 F-150 FX4 has the tire pressure sensors? My manual doesn't really help and I'm told not all of these 2007's have them. I hope I don't.

Only 2007 F150's with the Heavy Duty payload package were built without the tire pressure monitoring system.

Your FX4 has sensors

The easiest way is to let the air out of your tire. If the lights up you have the TPMS system.

You should be able to just turn the key on (not start) all the warning lights should then self test, if you have TPMS you should see the symbol shorebird displayed. Or as he said....let the air out of a tire.

Thanks for all the input. Just something else to spend money on without a good reason. I mean really, if you don't regularly check your tires...anyway, thanks again.

why does everyone give them such a bad rap??? We've pretty much stopped complaining about seat belts and air bags....how are these much different?
