Diagnostic Steps

1
Check the current tire pressures using a tire pressure gauge to ensure they are at the recommended levels.
2
Visually inspect each tire for any signs of damage or punctures.
3
Verify that the spare tire (if equipped) and all tires are inflated to the manufacturer's specified pressure.
4
Ensure the vehicle is at a complete stop and the ignition is in the 'ON' position (not running).

Solution

1. Preparation

Gather necessary tools: tire pressure gauge, owner's manual for reference.
Ensure vehicle is parked on a flat surface and the engine is off.

2. Inflate Tires

Using a tire inflator, adjust the air pressure in each tire to match the recommended PSI listed on the driver's side door jamb.
Recheck the tire pressures with the gauge after inflating.

3. Reset the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)

Turn the ignition key to the "ON" position without starting the engine.
Locate the TPMS reset button, usually found beneath the steering column or near the driver's side door.
Press and hold the TPMS reset button until the tire pressure light blinks three times, then release it.
Start the vehicle and wait for a few minutes to ensure the light turns off.

4. Verify Reset

After driving for a short distance (approximately 10-15 minutes), check if the tire pressure light remains off. If it does not, repeat the reset procedure.
