Safety Warnings

  • ⚠Ensure the vehicle is in park and on a level surface before adjusting tire pressures.

Symptoms

  • •Tire pressure warning light illuminated on the dashboard
  • •Possible fluctuating tire pressure readings
  • •Reduced fuel efficiency due to under-inflated tires
  • •Warning message displayed on the multi-information display

Diagnostic Steps

  1. 1Check all tire pressures using a tire pressure gauge to ensure they are within manufacturer specifications.
  2. 2Inspect each tire for visible damage, wear, or punctures.
  3. 3Verify that the spare tire (if equipped with a TPMS sensor) is also at the correct pressure.
  4. 4Confirm that no recent tire rotations or replacements have occurred that could impact the TPMS.

Solution

Solution

1. Preparation

  • Ensure the vehicle is parked on a level surface.
  • Gather necessary tools: tire pressure gauge and a portable air compressor if needed.

2. Adjust Tire Pressures

  • Sub-step 1: Verify the recommended tire pressures listed on the driver’s side door jamb.
  • Sub-step 2: Inflate or deflate each tire to the recommended psi using the air compressor or tire gauge.

3. Reset the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)

  • Sub-step 1: Insert the key into the ignition and turn it to the "ON" position without starting the engine.
  • Sub-step 2: Locate the TPMS reset button, typically found under the steering wheel or to the right of the dashboard.
  • Sub-step 3: Press and hold the TPMS reset button until the tire pressure light blinks three times, then release the button.
  • Sub-step 4: Start the engine and allow it to run for a few minutes to confirm the reset.

4. Verify the Reset

  • Sub-step 1: Turn off the engine and restart it to check if the tire pressure light remains off.
  • Sub-step 2: Drive the vehicle for a short distance to ensure the TPMS recalibrates properly.

Verification

After completing the repair, verify that the issue has been resolved:

  • Test the affected component to ensure it functions correctly
  • Check for any error codes or warning lights
  • Monitor the vehicle for a few days to ensure the issue does not recur

Prevention Tips

To prevent this issue from occurring again:

  • •Follow the manufacturer's recommended maintenance schedule
  • •Address warning signs early before they develop into major issues
  • •Use quality parts and fluids recommended for your vehicle
  • •Keep detailed records of all repairs and maintenance

Tools & Equipment Required

  • Tire pressure gauge
  • Portable air compressor
