Solution

Solution

1. Preparation

  • Ensure the vehicle is parked on a level surface.
  • Turn off the engine and ensure the key is in the "OFF" position.
  • Gather necessary tools including the vehicle owner’s manual for reference.

2. Correct Tire Pressures

  • Sub-step 1: Inflate all tires to the recommended PSI as indicated on the driver’s side door jamb or in the owner's manual.
  • Sub-step 2: Recheck the tire pressures after inflating to confirm they are correct.

3. Reset the Tire Pressure Monitoring System

  • Sub-step 1: Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position without starting the engine.
  • Sub-step 2: Locate the TPMS reset button, which is typically found beneath the steering column or near the driver's side dashboard.
  • Sub-step 3: Press and hold the TPMS reset button until the tire pressure light blinks three times, then release it.
  • Sub-step 4: Start the engine and allow the vehicle to run for about 20 minutes, which can help recalibrate the system.

4. Check for Light Reset

  • Sub-step 1: After the vehicle has run, check to see if the tire pressure warning light has turned off.
  • Sub-step 2: If the light remains on, recheck tire pressures and repeat the reset procedure.
