Solution

1. Preparation

Ensure the vehicle is parked on a level surface.
Turn the ignition to the "ON" position without starting the engine.

2. Reset TPMS

Locate the TPMS reset button, usually found under the steering wheel or in the glove box. Refer to the owner's manual if needed.
Press and hold the TPMS reset button until the tire pressure light blinks three times, then release the button.
Start the vehicle and let it run for a few minutes to ensure the system recalibrates. The warning light should turn off during this time.

3. Verify Tire Pressure

After resetting, check again that all tire pressures are at the recommended levels.
Drive the vehicle at speeds above 30 mph for about 10 minutes to allow the system to confirm the correct tire pressures.

4. Final Check

After driving, recheck if the tire pressure light has remained off. If it is still illuminated, further diagnostics may be necessary.
