Frequently asked questions
2025 Ford F-150 Lightning Pro shown

On the Ford F-150 Lightning, the tire pressure light means one or more monitored tires may be at least 25 percent below the pressure shown on the driver’s door-jamb placard, or that the tire pressure monitoring system has a fault. The symbol looks like a horseshoe-shaped tire outline with an exclamation point inside. Larry H. Miller Ford Mesa in Mesa, AZ, checks each tire’s pressure, verifies every sensor’s signal and battery status, and inspects for punctures or leaking valve stems. The diagnosis also includes a system relearn after sensor or tire work, helping separate a tire that needs air or repair from a sensor that needs replacement. Drivers can schedule service with Larry H. Miller Ford Mesa when the warning appears.

What the tire pressure light means on a Ford F-150 Lightning

The tire pressure warning is a horseshoe-shaped tire outline with an exclamation point inside. When it stays steadily illuminated, one or more monitored tires are at least 25 percent below the placard pressure on the driver’s door jamb. A cold night can trigger the warning because tire pressure drops about one psi for every ten degrees, even when a tire appears fully inflated. An underinflated tire wears faster and runs hotter, so the pressure should be set at the next stop.

If the light flashes for about a minute at startup and then stays on, the monitoring system itself has a fault, usually involving a sensor whose battery has run down. A steady light calls for checking tire pressure and possible tire inspection; a flashing-then-steady light calls for diagnosis of the monitoring system.

What the diagnosis covers at Larry H. Miller Ford Mesa

Larry H. Miller Ford Mesa checks the pressure of every monitored tire against the placard on the driver’s door jamb. Each tire pressure sensor is scanned for its signal and battery status, so the visit can distinguish a tire requiring air or repair from a sensor requiring replacement.

The inspection also looks for punctures and leaking valve stems. After any sensor or tire work, the system is relearned so the vehicle can recognize the monitored tires correctly. This process addresses a light that appeared after a temperature drop, a warning that remains on despite tires looking full, or a light that flashes at startup before staying illuminated. Drivers can schedule service for a tire pressure light diagnosis.
