Have You Done your own Tire Rotation?

[jay2000]

I would like to do my own tire rotations, but I am not sure about the TPMS reset tool.

 

I know that most Fords require reseting the TPMS for each tire when they move to a different position. I am prepared to buy a reset tool, but I am not sure if the one that other Fords use will work on the FFH. In fact, I am not even sure this reset is necessary.

 

I have some instructions I found on the web. And yesterday I tried to do a "preparation" sequence that was to be done prior to "training" the sensors. It did not seem to work at all. In fact, I am beginning to wonder if the FFH can detect which tire is where.

 

Anybody know the real story?

You don't need to reset the sensors when you rotate the tires. The only time you need to do that is on some trucks where the front and rear pressures are different.

I have changed rims on my FFH with replacement TPMS and have not had to reset. I did buy the reset tool when I purchased the tires, rims and TPMS from Tire Rack and have not needed it. :doh:
