How does the TPMS of the Tesla Model 3 work?

Model: Tesla Model 3 MK 1 - Years 2017-2024
Part:

In this video we can see how the TPMS of the Tesla Model 3 works, which is completely automatic and integrated into the car's electronics. When the pressure of one or more tires drops below a certain threshold, a yellow warning light appears on the digital dashboard. We check the pressure by going to the vehicle screen to see the exact values of each tire. In the video, the pressure had decreased due to the cold - a normal thing in winter - so all you have to do is inflate the tire back to the recommended pressure by Tesla. Once inflated, there is nothing else to do. Tesla will automatically detect the new pressures and after a few kilometers, the yellow warning will disappear on its own. No reset procedure is needed.
