Ensure all tires are inflated to the recommended pressure.
Gather the vehicle key fob or keyless entry remote.
Park the vehicle on a level surface and turn off the engine.

If necessary, consult the owner’s manual for the exact location.

3. Reset the TPMS

With the vehicle in the ON position (engine off), press and hold the TPMS reset button until the TPMS indicator blinks three times, then release it.
Start the engine and let it run for a few minutes to allow the system to recalibrate.

Turn the engine off and then back on.
Check if the tire pressure warning light is still illuminated.
If the light remains on, repeat the reset process.
