When the tyre-pressure warning light comes on in your Ford Focus Mk4 (2019–present), it usually just means the system needs to store your current pressures as the new reference after a check, top-up or wheel change. You reset it through the driver-display menu. This guide shows how.
When to Reset
- After checking or adjusting the tyre pressures (including seasonal changes).
- After changing one or more wheels or tyres.
- After rotating the wheels front-to-back.
Set Your Pressures First
The reset stores whatever pressures are in the tyres at that moment, so they must be correct first. Set all four (cold) to the figures on the placard in the driver’s door aperture, using the laden column for a full load. Never reset with a tyre already low.
How to Reset the Focus Mk4 TPMS
- Make sure all four tyres are at the correct cold pressure.
- Turn the ignition on.
- Using the multifunction steering-wheel controls, scroll the driver-display menu and select “Settings”.
- Select “Information”, then “Tyre Pressure”.
- Select “RESET” and press and hold the “OK” button until a confirmation message appears.
- A short drive lets the system settle and the light goes out.
Light Won’t Go Out? Work Through This
- A tyre is genuinely low: the system is doing its job — find and fix the leak, re-inflate, then reset.
- Reset not stored: repeat the menu steps and hold OK until it confirms.
- Light flashes (not steady): a flashing TPMS light points to a sensor fault rather than a low tyre — the car may store a code you can look up on autodtcs.com.
Frequently Asked Questions
Where is the TPMS reset on a Focus Mk4?
In the driver-display menu: Settings → Information → Tyre Pressure → RESET (hold OK to confirm).
Do I have to drive after resetting?
A short drive lets the system confirm the stored pressures, after which the light goes out.
Why does the light come back a few days later?
Either a tyre is slowly losing air, or it was a little low when you reset. Re-check all four cold pressures and reset again.
Do I need to reset after just topping up the air?
Yes — any pressure change shifts the reference, so reset after any adjustment.
After tyre or seasonal-wheel work it is worth confirming the service reminder is clear — see our Ford Focus Mk4 service indicator reset guide.
