Verify that all tires, including the spare, are inflated to the manufacturer's recommended pressure.
2
Check for any visible damage or punctures on the tires.
3
Inspect the tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) sensors for proper function.
4

Solution

1. Preparation

Gather necessary tools: tire pressure gauge, OBD-II scanner (if needed).
Ensure the vehicle is parked on a level surface.
Turn off the engine and ensure all doors are closed.

2. Check Tire Pressures

Using a tire pressure gauge, check the pressure of each tire.
Inflate or deflate the tires to match the recommended pressure specified on the driver’s side door jamb.

3. Reset the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)

For Keyless Start:
1. Turn the ignition to the "ON" position without starting the engine.
2. Locate the TPMS reset button, usually found below the steering column or on the dashboard.
3. Press and hold the TPMS reset button until the TPMS indicator blinks three times, then release the button.
For Traditional Ignition:
1. Start the engine.
2. Follow the same procedure as above to locate and press the TPMS reset button.

4. Test the System

Drive the vehicle at speeds over 30 mph for about 10 minutes to allow the system to recalibrate.
After the drive, check if the tire pressure light remains illuminated.
