TPS Display

[Lc4]

New owner question: Do I need to be driving at 20mph+ for the tire pressures to be displayed? They are not showing when parked.

In my XLT it is under the Driver Assist in the menu on the dash. I just checked and it is displayed sitting in the driveway.

It should show up while parked and If you have the FordPass app on your phone you can check it there too

Too lazy to consult the online owner's manual here, but does the system monitor the spare also?

Not that I have seen. I don't think the spare has a TPS.

No just the ones mounted on the truck. Don't worry I've never read a owners manual from any of my trucks. lol

Uh oh, never read your owner's manual? Fifty lashes with a wet noodle for you!

Though so, not really a safety-related issue, I made it a point to check my spare every 3 months or so (or when I felt guilty).
I've helped many people change flats, only to discover the spare was flatter than Nebraska...lol

Thanks found it in "settings" as you indicated and system gives a reading while parked. I was looking under "display" options under "tire pressure" my bad.

I also found the spare tire tools buried in front of the jack along with the plastic fuel refill funnel. Manual is not very specific on many items, procedures, locations etc.

I put a valve extension hose on my spare with a valve cap that shows if the pressure is OK. Just need to look under the bed a see the Valve cap to ensure good pressure.

My tire guy who also runs an oil change operation, taught me to check my spare every time I change the oil. And if the valve stem was pointed upwards under the truck bed drop it, turn it over and have it facing down to where it's easy to check.
