On some models of Ford, like the windstar. Usually with the passive TPMS, theres a reset button you have to press & hold after correcting the tries' pressure. Look up on Ford's website and do a search for 2008 Ranger Owners Manual. They specially listed it in the owners guide.
I'm thinking the tire shop might have removed them. Call the shop and ask.
The tire light on the Windstars are a tire rotation reminder. When it comes on, it's time to rotate tires, nothing to do with TPMS.
All 08 cars and light trucks have TPMS. Now what may have happened with desertfordranger truck is the shop switched over the sensors but did not retrain them which would set the lamp on. Driving around would train them so the lamp is now off.
The TPMS is part of the Smart Junction Box ( SJB formerly known as a GEM ) so you cannot disable the system.
