The system uses sophisticated sensors attached to the valve stem. If you&#8217;ve gotten a tire rotation done lately, you may notice your TPMS display has the tire positions all out of whack. Because the sensors are located inside each tire, you may have to reset the Tire Pressure Monitoring System and help it relearn the new positions of your tire sensors. Learn how to reset tire pressure sensors on your Ford vehicle with step-by-step instructions.
