Diagnostic Steps

1
Check the actual tire pressures using a tire pressure gauge.
2
Inflate or deflate tires to the recommended pressure specified in the owner’s manual or on the driver’s door jamb label.
3
Ensure the spare tire is also properly inflated if applicable.
4

Solution

1. Preparation

Gather the necessary tools: tire pressure gauge, air compressor (if needed), and owner's manual for tire pressure specifications.
Ensure the vehicle is parked on a flat surface and the engine is off.

2. Adjust Tire Pressures

Use the tire pressure gauge to check each tire's pressure, including the spare.
Inflate each tire to the recommended pressure (usually found in the owner’s manual or on a sticker inside the driver’s door).
If any tire is over-inflated, release some air to reach the correct pressure.

3. Reset the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)

Turn the ignition to the "ON" position without starting the engine.
Locate the TPMS reset button, typically found beneath the steering wheel or on the dashboard.
Press and hold the TPMS reset button until the tire pressure warning light blinks three times, then release it.
Start the engine and allow it to run for a few minutes; the warning light should turn off.

4. Final Check

Drive the vehicle for a short distance (about 10 minutes) to ensure the TPMS system recalibrates.
After driving, check if the tire pressure warning light remains off.
