Tires: pressure monitoring and regulating systems

Summary

During pre delivery inspection (pdi), 2017 f-super duty vehicles will exhibit an illuminated low tire pressure warning light and inaccurate tire pressure readouts in message center (if equipped). While inflating the tires to specification for pdi, it is not necessary to complete a TPMS sensor activation procedure to turn off the warning message and update the message sensor pressure readout. To clear warning message and correct pressure readouts, drive the vehicle for 2 miles or 2 minutes at over 32 kph (20 MPH) after inflating the tires during the road test portion of the pdi worksheet. If the TPMS low tire pressure warning is still present or message center pressure readout is inaccurate after the required driving, refer to the online workshop manual, section 204-04b for normal diagnostics.
