There are aftermarket valve stem style sensors that are compatible with the earlier system, I assume that's what you have from AM.

Thanks fast Ed,

I do understand that part and yes that is what I have from AM.

I guess my new question is:

Why is my sensor light on my dash not trigged yet after driving 100 kms with the 2014 sensors? As I said earlier, when I change the tires on my wife's car and my truck as well. The dash light will come on after a couple of Kms if not reset. They are both a GM's. Does Ford sensors take longer to trigger?
