Tire Pressure Monitoring System Fault

[Shakesbear]

Then maybe yours is broken and the OPs is functioning properly?

I've never received a warning from my TPMS on any vehicle that my tires had "too much" air in them I don't think that was his problem.

I keep getting intermittent errors on my TPMS. Keeps loosing communication with the same tire, so add me to what looks like a list of sensor failures. Started at 750ish miles and at 1500 now.

Carrying on TPMS issues, I got this last night along with a trailer lighting error issue? I didn't get apic of that. Here is the failure to communicate light: (my truck really isn't dirty, it's my phones dirty Lense!)

Dealer said it will be until May to have an electrical guy look at it. Great start to ownership. It could be worse.

Hi there! Will you send us a message with your VIN and your local Ford dealer? I can look into things on my end.

I have a service apt tomorrow to get checked/replaced

Brought mine in for service yesterday, showed the dealer the alerts in my FordPass app, and got the “can’t replicate”. Dealer “relearned” all tires. Reluctantly left with “if it does it again we will replace”. Luckily today, I was 4 miles away on my way home from visiting my nieces when it went off again, so stopped and got the faulty sensor replace. Hopefully that’s it!

 

[Metro12]

Whelp, that didn’t work.
Dealer first tried a relearn, rear driver again was lost.
Dealer then replaced rear driver sensor. And again, 3 times in like 200 miles, it’s been lost.
dealer is looking to see what the next attempted fix should be.

Does anyone know if there are receivers in each wheel well, or if it’s one singular receiver for all four tires? I’m wondering if it’s separate receivers in each wheel well, if it might be that receiver not the sensor inside the tire? 🫨

Taking it back in next week. Dealer thinks a dashcam that has capability to Bluetooth download videos to my phone could be causing the TPMS to be loosing communication with the individual tire sensor. I’m feeling that’s BS

 

[Metro12]

Well, it was back in and dealer could not reproduce the error.
Dealer is “almost 100% certain” it’s the dash cameras, since they are Bluetooth capable to download video direct to your phone.
I’m calling BS, as ford TPMS operates in the 315 mghz spectrum and Bluetooth devices are in the 2.4ghz spectrum-its like saying if my cell phone is near my TV it can cause it to change channels.

I’ve had it on an older system. 2012 Forester light would be solid for low, flashing for high.

I'm having this same issues. Rear driver. Then the rear passenger will go out. They moved the sensor from driver to passenger and told me to drive it and see what happens. Still does it. Usually after 15 minutes of driving. But I've drive 10 hours and it didn't do it at all. In not sure. Dealer told me it was because of stuff plugged into my USB ports. Tried unplugging stuff when i drive and still the same thing.

For those of you having a problem trying to get a good diagnostic done on your TPMS ,I have seen other brands of vehicles have the same type of miscommunication and send the same type of error messages and very hard to figure out. Most times after replacing the TPMS in the tires and trying to reprogram them not working it ended up being the TPMS receiver .

This same thing happened on my focus and the tech went to each tire and reprogrammed the sensor. It hasn't done it since. I'm not saying this is the problem, just that it is what fixed mine.

Bought my 2023 Maverick hybrid not even 2 weeks ago. Only had 120 miles on it when I picked it up, on my first trip to work the Tire Pressure Monitor System Fault lit up! Made an appointment at the dealer. First Ford I owned, hope this isn't a sign of what's to come.
