To protect sensitive circuits, disconnect the battery cables. This will prevent issues during the replacement.

Now locate the motor's position, which is behind the glove compartment in front of the front passenger seat. Bend down and illuminate this area to find it. Disconnect the connectors and then remove the screws securing the motor.

You can now pull it out and retrace the steps for reassembling the various components.

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.
