After replacing the engine oil in the Jeep Grand Cherokee, proceed to reset the control system, which displays a reminder on the dashboard to alert you of the need to perform this important maintenance task. Sit in the driver's seat, ensure all doors are closed, press the ignition button once, then fully depress and release the accelerator pedal three times; press the brake and start the vehicle.

Turn off the vehicle, and upon the next restart, you can verify that the reset has been successful.

Once all tyres have been inflated to the recommended pressure, turn on the ignition to check that the light has disappeared: if it is still present, it may be necessary to drive for a few miles, allowing the sensors to work and thus turning off the light.
