After adjusting the tyre pressures or changing a wheel on your Ford Kuga Mk3 (2020–present), you store the new values as the reference from the cluster menu. Here’s how to clear the tyre-pressure warning.
Set the Pressures First
Inflate all four tyres cold to the figure on the driver’s door-pillar label, then store the reference.
How to Reset the Kuga Mk3 TPMS
- Turn the ignition on.
- Using the steering-wheel controls, scroll the cluster menu to ‘Vehicle information’ (settings).
- Select ‘Tyre pressure’.
- Press and hold ‘OK’ until a confirmation message appears.
- The system stores the current pressures as the reference; drive a short distance to complete the learn.
If the Light Stays On
- Re-check every tyre — one low corner keeps the warning on.
- Always re-store after inflating or a wheel change — the Kuga needs the new baseline set.
- A steady-flashing TPMS light means a sensor fault (flat sensor battery, or unmatched after a wheel change) and needs a tyre shop’s tool.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I reset the tyre pressure light on a Ford Kuga?
Set the pressures, then on the cluster menu go to Vehicle information → Tyre pressure and hold OK until it confirms.
Do I need a tool?
Not for a normal reset — the Kuga stores the reference itself. A tool is only needed if a sensor was replaced.
Why does the light come on in cold weather?
Pressures drop as temperature falls. Top up to the label figure and re-store the reference.
It came on after a wheel change — why?
The reference moved. Re-run the store so the new pressures become the baseline.
If a fault code is stored, look it up on autodtcs.com. To clear a service reminder, see our Kuga Mk3 service reset.
