Solution

1. Preparation

Tools Required: Tire pressure gauge, air compressor (if needed), vehicle owner's manual for recommended tire pressures.
Ensure the vehicle is parked on a level surface and the ignition is turned off.

2. Adjust Tire Pressures

Sub-steps:
1. Remove the valve stem caps from each tire.
2. Use the tire pressure gauge to measure the current pressure of each tire.
3. If any tire is below the recommended PSI, use the air compressor to inflate it to the specified level.
4. If any tire is over the recommended PSI, release some air until it reaches the correct level.
5. Replace the valve stem caps securely after adjusting tire pressures.

3. Reset the TPMS Light

Sub-steps:
1. Turn the ignition key to the "ON" position without starting the engine (for push-to-start, press the start button without pressing the brake).
2. Locate the TPMS reset button, usually found beneath the steering wheel or in the glove compartment.
3. Press and hold the TPMS reset button until the TPMS light blinks three times, then release it.
4. Start the engine and let it run for a few minutes to ensure the TPMS light goes off.

4. Final Checks

Sub-steps:
1. Drive the vehicle for a short distance (about 10 minutes) to allow the system to recalibrate.
2. Monitor the dashboard for the TPMS light; it should remain off if the reset was successful.
