Solution

1. Preparation

Gather necessary tools:
- Tire pressure gauge
- OBD-II scanner (if required)
Ensure all tires are at the correct pressure before resetting the TPMS.

2. Reset TPMS

Start the vehicle and ensure it is in park.
Locate the TPMS reset button, usually found beneath the steering column or near the fuse box.
Press and hold the TPMS reset button until the tire pressure light blinks three times, then release it.
Drive the vehicle for 10-15 minutes at speeds above 30 mph to allow the system to recalibrate.

3. Confirm Reset

After driving, check the dashboard to see if the tire pressure light remains off.
If the light is still illuminated, repeat the reset procedure or check for any TPMS faults.
