Ford Shelby GT350 Tire Pressure Light service at Larry H. Miller Ford Mesa in Mesa, AZ

Frequently asked questions
2019 Ford Shelby GT350 shown

On a Ford Shelby GT350, 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 is a horseshoe-shaped tire outline with an exclamation point inside. Larry H. Miller Ford Mesa in Mesa, Arizona, helps drivers identify whether the warning calls for air, a tire repair, or attention to a tire pressure sensor. The service checks every monitored tire, verifies each sensor’s signal and battery status, and inspects for leaks or punctures so the warning can be addressed with a clear diagnosis.

What the tire pressure light means on a Ford Shelby GT350

A steadily illuminated tire pressure light means one or more monitored tires are at least 25 percent below the placard pressure. This can happen after a cold night because tire pressure drops about one psi for every ten degrees. An underinflated tire wears faster and runs hotter, so the pressure should be set at the next stop.

If the light remains on even though the tires look fully inflated, the pressure still needs to be checked against the door-jamb placard and the system’s sensor signals should be evaluated. A light that flashes for about a minute at startup and then stays on indicates a monitoring-system fault, usually because a sensor battery has run down. The warning’s behavior helps distinguish a tire-pressure concern from a sensor concern.

What the diagnosis covers at Larry H. Miller Ford Mesa

The tire pressure light service begins with a pressure check of every monitored tire against the placard on the driver’s door jamb. Each tire pressure sensor’s signal and battery status are also scanned. The inspection includes looking for punctures and leaking valve stems, which can explain why pressure falls or why the warning remains illuminated.

After sensor or tire work, the system is relearned so the vehicle can recognize the monitored tires correctly. This process separates a tire that needs air or a repair from a sensor that needs replacing. Drivers can schedule service at Larry H. Miller Ford Mesa for a complete pressure and sensor check.

What does the tire pressure light look like and mean on a Ford Shelby GT350?It looks like a horseshoe-shaped tire outline with an exclamation point inside and indicates low tire pressure or a monitoring-system fault.

A steady light means one or more monitored tires are at least 25 percent below the driver’s door-jamb placard pressure. A flashing light at startup that stays on points to a system fault, usually involving a sensor battery.

Why does the tire pressure light come on when the tires look full or after a cold night?Cold temperatures can lower tire pressure, while a tire that looks full may still need a pressure and sensor check.

Tire pressure drops about one psi for every ten degrees, which can illuminate the warning after a cold night. The service compares every tire with the placard pressure and checks for punctures, leaking valve stems, and sensor concerns.

What does a flashing tire pressure light mean?A tire pressure light that flashes for about a minute at startup and then stays on indicates a monitoring-system fault.

The fault is usually caused by a sensor whose battery has run down. Scanning each sensor’s signal and battery status helps distinguish the system concern from a tire that needs air or repair.

Can a Ford Shelby GT350 be driven with the tire pressure light on?The pressure should be set at the next stop because an underinflated tire wears faster and runs hotter.

A steady warning means one or more monitored tires are significantly below the placard pressure. The tire pressure and sensor check helps identify whether the issue involves pressure, a puncture, a leaking valve stem, or the monitoring system.
