Solution

1. Preparation

Ensure that all tires are inflated to the correct PSI as indicated on the driver’s door jamb label.
Have the vehicle parked on a level surface and ensure the engine is running.

2. Reset TPMS

Locate the TPMS reset button: This is usually found below the steering wheel or near the driver's side footwell.
Press and hold the TPMS reset button: Hold the button until the tire pressure warning light blinks three times and then turns off. This indicates that the system is resetting.
Release the button: After the warning light has turned off, release the TPMS reset button.
Turn off the engine: After resetting, turn off the engine and wait for a few seconds.
Start the engine again: Check if the tire pressure warning light remains off after starting the engine.

3. Verify Tire Pressures

After resetting, confirm all tires are still at the correct PSI to ensure accurate readings.
