Have recently changed wheels, and the TPMS warning keeps lighting up. I have stored pressure several times but still comes on after a while. Is there any way I can disable it altogether, I don't have Forscan. I'm pretty sure my previous wheels (18" rs reps) didn't have the TPMS valves and it was ok with them. Getting annoying now.

 

[Denboy1]

have you actually checked the pressures to make sure they are ok? or could be a dodgy sensor

Wheels were balanced and checked before fitting.

Forscan is required, to change from tpms, to flat detection system, which uses the abs sensors instead of tpms inside the tyres.

So how can I get forscan or is it best left to ford to do it, thanks.

 

[Denboy1]

Have done, tried a couple, don't work though.

How or where do I get forscan

 

[Denboy1]

Do it yourself, download it free until you need to pay for a subscription..you'll need a laptop to OBD cable for about 25 quid or so, have a look at a YouTube guide to forscan for Ford & it's very self explanatory

Ford charge 90 quid an hour labour

Cheers fella.

Have turned off keyless entry from the menu. 👍

Phoned Ford yesterday, they said they would disable the TPMS for £50 and that would include a complimentary car wash and health check. Thought that was ok, so booked it in.

I wouldn't let them wash your car.....they'll have some work experience lad do it with 300 grit samndpaper...

No I won't.

Wouldn't know where to start, lol
