Need to replace the boot light bulb? It's simple and can be done in a few steps. To avoid issues, disconnect the power to the bulb by securing the latch that closes the boot with a wire.

Once located, use a flathead screwdriver to press into the slot on the right; underneath, there is a tab. Leverage this tab and remove the bulb holder, taking care not to break it as the plastic may have deteriorated over the years. At this point, open the bulb holder and remove the burnt bulb, inserting the new one (5v5w). Reinsert the bulb holder into its place, and the operation is complete.

Remember to remove the wire used to secure the boot latch before closing it.

How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light on a MG ZS?

On the instrument cluster of the MG ZS, the tire pressure light that appears can be reset by inflating the tires to the correct pressure: this value will be indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tires have been properly inflated, you can turn on the instrument cluster and navigate through the menu until you find the option that indicates tire pressure: if this screen shows the new values, the light will turn off; otherwise, you will need to drive for a few miles so that the sensors can read the new values and turn off the light afterward.
