Solution

1. Preparation

Ensure all tires are inflated to the recommended pressure.
Gather necessary tools: a tire pressure gauge and the vehicle's owner's manual.

2. Reset the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)

Turn on the Ignition: Insert the key and turn the ignition to the "ON" position without starting the engine.
Locate the TPMS Reset Button: This is typically found under the dashboard or near the steering wheel. It may be labeled as "TPMS" or "Reset."
Press and Hold the TPMS Reset Button: Hold the button until the TPMS indicator light blinks three times, then release it.
Start the Engine: Turn the ignition off and then start the engine. This will allow the system to recalibrate.
Check the Light: Observe the dashboard. If the tire pressure warning light remains off, the reset was successful.
