Solution

1. Preparation

Gather the necessary tools: tire pressure gauge, OBD-II scanner (if needed).
Ensure that the vehicle is parked on a level surface and the tires are cold for accurate pressure readings.

2. Adjust Tire Pressures

Use a tire pressure gauge to check each tire's pressure.
Inflate or deflate the tires as needed to match the manufacturer's recommended pressure, found in the owner's manual or on the driver's side door jamb.

3. Reset the TPMS

Turn on the ignition: Insert the key and turn it to the "ON" position without starting the engine.
Locate the TPMS reset button: This is usually found under the steering column or on the dashboard near the driver's side.
Press and hold the TPMS reset button: Hold the button until the tire pressure light blinks three times, then release it.
Start the engine: Turn the ignition to the "OFF" position, then start the engine to ensure the reset has been successful.

4. Verify Reset

After the engine starts, check if the tire pressure warning light turns off. If it remains illuminated, repeat the reset steps or check for any underlying issues.
