Tire Pressure Light

Yeah I checked the search and I must be looking for love in all the wrong places but how do I reset the low tire pressure indicator light after it is triggered on a 2006 MCS. Thanks in advance.

The way it works on an '04 is that it won't go out no matter what you do, so you get mad and ignore it, and the next day it's gone.

If after resetting by following the instructions in the owner's manual, the light doesn't go off, you may have a bad sensor. You would need to have the dealer check it out.

From the manual:

1. Before a journey, start the engine, but do not start driving
2. Press the button long enough for the indicator lamp in the display elements to light up for a few seconds
3. Drive off.

It takes a few minutes before the Flat Tire
Monitor can detect a flat tire and issue an
alert
