Solution

1. Preparation

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

2. Adjust Tire Pressures

Use the tire pressure gauge to measure the pressure of each tire, including the spare if applicable.
Inflate or deflate each tire to the manufacturer's specified pressure (usually found on the driver's side door jamb).

3. Reset the TPMS

Locate the TPMS reset button: This is typically found beneath the steering column or near the dashboard.
Turn the ignition to the "ON" position: Do not start the engine.
Press and hold the TPMS reset button: Hold it until the tire pressure warning light blinks three times, then release the button.
Wait for the light to turn off: This indicates that the TPMS has been reset successfully.

4. Final Check

Start the vehicle and observe the dashboard for the tire pressure light.
If the light remains illuminated, recheck tire pressures and repeat the reset process.
