Ensure all tires are at the correct pressure.
Gather necessary tools: Tire pressure gauge, OBD-II scanner (if needed for error codes), and the vehicle's owner's manual.

2. Reset TPMS

Locate the Reset Button:

Turn on the Ignition:
- Insert the key into the ignition and turn it to the "ON" position without starting the engine.
Press and Hold the TPMS Reset Button:
- Press and hold the reset button until the tire pressure warning light blinks three times, then release it.
Turn Off the Ignition:
- Turn the ignition off and wait for a few seconds.
Start the Vehicle:
- Start the engine. The tire pressure light should be off after a few minutes of driving if the tire pressures are correct.

3. Alternative Reset Method (If Necessary)

Drive the Vehicle:
- Drive at speeds above 25 mph for approximately 10 minutes to allow the TPMS to recalibrate automatically.
