Go to the screen where it shows the oil status. e.g. 40% or "oil needs to be changed. etc. HOld the reset button in for 10 seconds or more until you see it default back to 0.

Tire Pressure Light by susanmariej

My check tire pressure light remains on. The pressure has been checked and matches the manuals recommendations. It used to just happen when the weather turned cool/cold {for So Cal} Now it's doing it more often than not.
Any thoughts?
 
Thanks again,
Susan

My Aviator is doing the exact same thing. What did you ever do to get this resolved? Did you find an easy repair??? (doubtful!) Thanks

After installing new tires, I had to bring it to the dealer for reprogamming. Error condition disappeared after that.

Issue with - intake manifold tuning valve by aviatorguy
Dec 02, 2009 (4:57 am)

My 2004 aviator (45k miles) recently started having brief moments of "hesitation" at speeds between 40 - 55mph, when accelerating. I took it to the Ford dealer thinking transmission and they indicated it was the intake manifold tuning valve.
Replacement cost per the dealer is $1100.
Coincidentally, I've contacted a local Firestone dealer who indicated labor would be $470, gaskets $120, and they could likely clean the valve that probably has oil residue on it.
Questions:
Is there any aftermarket product I can purchase, spray in the manifold to help eliminate any buildup?
Has anyone been through this? Is the dealer on point? Is the Firestone shop on point in indicating the valve should be cleanable?
Thoughts?

My '03 Aviator was doing the same thing. I also thought it was the transmission but the dealer found no problem with the transmission. (the problem lasted several months). Recently it was sluggish starting and I replaced the battery. The hesitation and fluttering stopped as well. I spoke with a mechanic who told me a weak battery could have been causing the problem. You might want to have your battery checked.
