Solution

1. Preparation

Ensure the vehicle is parked on a level surface and that the engine is turned off.
Gather necessary tools: Tire pressure gauge (if needed).

2. Inflate Tires

Use a tire pressure gauge to check the pressure of each tire.
Inflate any under-inflated tires to the manufacturer's recommended PSI, which can be found on the driver’s side door jamb.

3. Reset TPMS

Turn the ignition to the "ON" position without starting the engine.
Locate the TPMS reset button, which is usually found under the steering column or near the fuse box.
Press and hold the TPMS reset button until the TPMS indicator light blinks three times, then release the button.
Start the engine and allow it to run for about 20 minutes to ensure the system recalibrates.

4. Final Check

After driving the vehicle for about 10 minutes, check if the TPMS light has turned off.
If the light remains on, repeat the reset process or consult a professional technician.
