I encountered a situation where the tire pressure warning light stayed on in my Ford Kuga. First, I checked the tire pressure and found the left rear tire was 0.5bar lower than the standard value. After inflating it with an air pump, the light still didn't go off. I remembered to find the tire pressure reset function in the vehicle settings menu via the steering wheel controls, then held the confirm button for 5 seconds to successfully reset it. If the light remains on after resetting, the sensor might be faulty, and you'll need to visit a 4S shop for computer diagnostics to identify which wheel has the issue. Now I've developed the habit of carrying a tire pressure gauge and quickly checking the tires before driving, since incorrect tire pressure is not only dangerous but also increases fuel consumption. Finally, check the spare tire pressure as it can sometimes trigger false alarms.

The tire pressure warning light suddenly came on while taking my kid to school last time, which made me quite nervous. I first pulled over to check all tires for obvious leaks. Seeing nothing abnormal, I drove to a gas station to top up the tires using their free air pump - the standard tire pressure for a Ford Kuga is typically between 2.3-2.5 bar. After inflating, I restarted the car and held down the TPMS reset button in the center console menu for about ten seconds. If the light still doesn't go off, it might indicate a dead sensor battery or module malfunction, so I scheduled to have it checked during my next dealership maintenance. I recommend keeping a portable electric air pump in your car for emergencies.

Don't rush to repair when the tire pressure light comes on, first confirm if it's a false alarm. My experience is to use a mechanical tire pressure gauge to measure each wheel's pressure when the car is cold, checking if there's a significant difference. If the readings are normal, perform a reset operation. For the Ford Kuga, you can reset it by selecting the maintenance mode in the dashboard settings. If the light remains on, it's likely that the wireless sensor inside the tire is faulty, and replacing the sensor will cost a few hundred bucks. Sometimes, after driving on rough roads, the sensor might be covered with mud causing a false alarm—just wash the wheel hub clean. After resetting, remember to drive on the highway for a while to let the system recalibrate.
