Solution

1. Preparation

Gather necessary tools: OBD-II scanner (if needed), tire pressure gauge, and a portable air compressor (if tire pressure needs adjustment).
Ensure all tires are at the recommended pressure as specified in the owner’s manual.

2. Reset TPMS Light

Turn on the Ignition: Insert the key and turn the ignition to the "ON" position without starting the engine.
Locate the TPMS Reset Button: Typically found under the steering wheel or in the glove box. Consult the owner’s manual for the exact location.
Press and Hold the Reset Button: Hold the button until the tire pressure warning light blinks three times and then turns off. This may take about 3 seconds.
Turn Off Ignition: Turn the ignition off and then back on to confirm that the light has reset.

3. Check Tire Pressure Again

After resetting, recheck tire pressures in all tires to ensure they are at the correct levels.
