Solution

1. Preparation

Gather necessary tools: tire pressure gauge, vehicle owner's manual (for reference).
Ensure the vehicle is parked on a level surface and the engine is off.

2. Inflate Tires

Use a tire inflator to adjust all tires to the recommended pressure specified in the owner's manual or on the driver's side door jamb.
Check the pressures again using the tire pressure gauge to confirm they are correct.

3. Access TPMS Reset Feature

Start the vehicle by turning the ignition to the "ON" position without starting the engine.
Locate the TPMS reset button. It is usually found under the dashboard near the steering column or in the glove compartment.

4. Reset TPMS

Press and hold the TPMS reset button until the TPMS indicator light blinks three times, then release it.
The TPMS light should turn off after a few seconds, indicating the system has been reset.

5. Test Drive

Drive the vehicle for a short distance (approximately 10-15 minutes) at speeds over 20 mph to allow the TPMS to recalibrate.
Monitor the dashboard to ensure the TPMS light does not re-illuminate.
