Solution

1. Preparation

Ensure all tires are at the correct pressure as specified on the driver’s side door jamb.
Gather necessary tools, such as a tire pressure gauge and an OBD-II scanner (if needed).

2. Reset TPMS using Vehicle Controls

Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position without starting the engine.
Press the "Menu" button on the steering wheel.
Navigate to "Settings" on the display screen.
Select "Vehicle" and then choose "TPMS Calibration".
Select "Calibrate" and confirm the action when prompted.

3. Reset TPMS using the TPMS Reset Button (if equipped)

With the vehicle in the "ON" position, locate the TPMS reset button, which is usually found below the steering wheel or near the driver's side footwell.
Press and hold the TPMS reset button until the TPMS indicator blinks three times, then release it.
Start the vehicle and allow it to run for at least 20 minutes for the system to recognize the tire pressures.
