Diagnostic Steps

1
Check the tire pressure in all four tires using a tire pressure gauge.
2
Inspect each tire visually for signs of damage, punctures, or abnormalities.
3

Solution

1. Preparation

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

2. Check and Adjust Tire Pressure

Remove valve caps from all tires.
Use the tire pressure gauge to measure the pressure in each tire.
Compare each tire's pressure to the manufacturer's recommended specifications (found on the driver’s door jamb).
Inflate or deflate tires as necessary to achieve the correct pressure.
Reinstall valve caps securely.

3. Inspect Tires

Look for any visible damage, such as cuts, punctures, or bulges.
If any damage is found, replace the tire as needed.
Check the tread depth to ensure it is within safe limits.

4. Reset TPMS

If the tire pressures are correct but the light remains on, locate the TPMS reset button (usually under the steering wheel).
With the vehicle in the "ON" position (engine running or accessory mode), press and hold the TPMS reset button until the TPMS light blinks three times.
Release the button and wait for the light to turn off.

5. Test Drive

Drive the vehicle for a short distance (approximately 10-15 minutes) to allow the system to recalibrate.
Monitor the tire pressure light; it should go off if the issue has been resolved.
