I could not find anything after a lot of searching , so here I am .
2014 F-150 STX
I had been driving around for months with the Tire Pressure Sensor Fault notice on 90% of the time on the dash display and with the Yellow Tire Pressure Warning Light on .
I had some slow leaks that mostly went away a after a shot of Fix-a-Flat .
One day the dash lit up with multiple warning lights , multiple notices , and music and chimes going off .
The warning lights were ; Red Brake Warning with the Exclamation Point and the letter P. Yellow "skidding car" light . Yellow ABS Warning. Yellow Tire Pressure Light .
The notices said ; Service AdvanceTrac . Check Brake System . Tire Pressure Sensor Fault .
I know what they all refer to .
But , the lights & warnings would mostly go away for extended periods of time , but keep coming back . The Tire Pressure Sensor Fault dash notice and the Tire Pressure Warning Light mostly hung around .
I always check my tire pressures , brake fluid was fine , got no codes on my scanner , braking & traction felt fine ...
Sooooo, I brought it into a reputable repair shop and of course the lights, notices , music and chimes were absent . They got nothing on their scanner . They did replace a tire pressure sensor.
For months after that repair , no lights, notices, music, or chimes ...
So now I'm getting ready to sell/trade and it all breaks out again , with an addition .
Now , same sad situation as before , but with a new red warning Emergency Brake Light on constantly with a Non-Stop Loud Gong going off . When I put it in drive or reverse ,
a notice displays Parking Brake Engaged . It's not though , as far as I can tell ...
I do not want to just get a new sensor and dump this on the next owner .
Any ideas ?
Thanks for just reading this.

My guess is a dash problem, now that the tire pressure light stays on will make it easier for a tech to find the problem.

hey there, sounds like a real headache with your f-150. i had something similar happen with my old truck, turned out to be a wiring issue in the dash. might be worth getting that checked out?
