How to Reset the TPMS Light on Your Car Dashboard

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part:

The procedure shown in the video is a general one that may vary depending on the make and model, but it is fundamentally based on this. First, check the tyre pressures and adjust them to the recommended values from the manufacturer. You will find the correct value on a self-adhesive label located on the driver's door pillar or inside the fuel flap. The reset procedure may vary as follows: For some models, simply driving for a few minutes at speeds above 25 mph will reset the light. Others have a dedicated button located in the glove compartment or under the steering wheel (driver's side). Newer models perform the reset through the onboard computer menu, following the path "settings/service/tyres/reset pressure". If the light remains on despite all this, consider that it may be a faulty sensor or a dead battery; alternatively, there could be a fault in the system. In any case, you should consult an authorised workshop.
