2. Reset the Tire Pressure Monitoring System

Turn on the Ignition
- Insert the key fob into the ignition and turn it to the "On" position without starting the engine.
Locate the TPMS Reset Button
- The TPMS reset button is typically located under the steering wheel or near the center console. Consult the owner's manual for the exact location.
Press and Hold the Reset Button
- Press and hold the TPMS reset button until the tire pressure light blinks three times, then release the button. This indicates that the system is resetting.
Drive the Vehicle
- Drive the vehicle for approximately 10-15 minutes at speeds above 25 mph. This allows the system to recalibrate itself.
Check for Warning Light
- After driving, check if the tire pressure warning light has turned off. If it remains illuminated, repeat the reset process or consult a professional.
