How can I reset the tire pressure light on a 04 Freestar?
It has nothing to do with the pressure, it seems that every time I simply take off a tire the light goes on and I have no way of resetting it. I can remove the little message that shows up by the odometer but not the warning light. It seems that the only way to have it done is to have a mechanic get at it.
Is there a trick to this?

Fix the tire pressure problem or have the sensor serviced.

There is a procedure in the owner's manual on how to do it. 2 different setups. One with message center and one without.

Vehicles Without Message Center..............................
To reset the system, press and hold the odometer reset button and wait for the "TIRE PRESSURE SET" light to illuminate. Continue to press the button for three seconds, then release. After three seconds, the low tire pressure warning lamp will flash three times, indicating that the low tire warning system reset procedure is complete. Vehicles With Message Center..................................... To reset the system, press and hold the SETUP button and wait for the message center to display "RESET FOR SYSTEM CHECK". Then press the RESET button and wait for the message center to display "HOLD RESET TO RELEARN". Press and hold the RESET button for three seconds. The message "HOLD RESET TO RELEARN" and the low tire warning lamp will flash three times, indicating the reset procedure is complete.__________________ PS Make sure the tire pressure is correct before resetting the light

I have the same issue sort of, just bought it 04 freestar sport, no info center, but on the odometer display it keeps saying "tire reset" tried what the maual says and no luck, even took it back to the dealer with no luck. There is however no actual low pressure warning light on the dash.

Re: How can I reset the tire pressure light on a 04 Freestar?
There aren't any "Pressure Sensors" on the vehicle(04Freestar). Tire pressure is monitored using the ABS sensors. When a tire is turning at a faster rate of speed than the others for a period of time due to low pressure, the warning indicator tells you that a tire is low.
If you have replaced any tires lately and have mismatched diameters (even a small variation) this could cause the warning indicator to come on. Uneven tire wear could create the same condition. You may want to measure your tread depth and/or tire circumference. I hope this info is useful!
