Frequently asked questions
2026 Ford Transit Passenger Van 350 Xlt Low Roof shown

On the Ford Transit Passenger Van, the tire pressure light is a horseshoe-shaped tire outline with an exclamation point that means one or more monitored tires are at least 25 percent below the pressure shown on the driver’s door-jamb placard when it stays illuminated, while a light that flashes for about a minute at start-up and then remains lit indicates a tire-pressure monitoring system fault, so the pressure should be checked and set at the next stop because an underinflated tire wears faster and runs hotter.

Larry H. Miller Ford Mesa in Mesa, AZ, provides tire pressure light diagnosis for Ford Transit Passenger Van drivers who need the tires and monitoring system evaluated together.

What the tire pressure light means on a Ford Transit Passenger Van

The warning symbol looks like a horseshoe-shaped tire outline with an exclamation point inside. When the light stays on steadily, one or more monitored tires are at least 25 percent below the pressure printed on the placard inside the driver’s door jamb. This may happen after a cold night because tire pressure drops about one psi for every ten degrees. A tire can appear fully inflated while still requiring a pressure check against the placard.

If the light flashes for about a minute when the vehicle starts and then stays illuminated, the tire-pressure monitoring system itself has a fault, usually involving a sensor whose battery has run down. An underinflated tire wears faster and runs hotter, so the pressure should be set at the next stop. Larry H. Miller Ford Mesa can determine whether the concern involves tire pressure, a leak, or the monitoring system.

What the diagnosis covers at Larry H. Miller Ford Mesa

The Tire Pressure Light service includes 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 to help separate a tire that needs air or a repair from a sensor that needs replacing.

The inspection includes checking for punctures and leaking valve stems. After any sensor or tire work, the system is relearned so the monitoring equipment can be evaluated again. This process addresses a steadily illuminated light, a light that appears after a temperature drop, or a light that flashes at start-up before remaining on. Drivers can schedule service at Larry H. Miller Ford Mesa.
