How is the low tire pressure light reset?
Turn the key to the “on” position with the car off, but don’t let it run. When the tire pressure light blinks three times, release pressure on the TPMS reset button. Start the car and let it run for 20 minutes to let the sensor reset. Under the steering wheel is typically where you’ll find the TPMS reset button.
The TPMS reset button is where?
Tire pressure monitoring system is referred to as TPMS. The TPMS reset button is often located below the steering wheel. Your car’s TPMS needs to be electronically reset after you replace the tires in order to erase the error message. Hold the TPMS reset button down until the tire pressure light blinks three times, then let go of the button to complete the process. Your car should be started, and the sensor will refresh after 20 minutes.
Without a reset button, how do you reset a TPMS?
The system must be put in relearn mode in order to reset the light. Make sure the tire pressures are all set evenly and according to the specifications first. To prevent the battery from going out, you might need to first connect a battery charger on low. All accessories must be turned off. After turning the key to the “On” position for 20 minutes with the engine off, drive the car at a speed of at least 16 mph for at least 7 minutes. The light will turn off once the relearn operation is complete. If the light does not turn off, the system needs to be fixed. Tire pressure sensors may need to be replaced because they can start to malfunction after 5 or 6 years of use.

Why, after filling the tires, is the tire pressure light still on?
If you’ve inflated your tires, but the air pressure warning light continues to flash, your tire pressure monitoring system is malfunctioning or you have a gradual leak. A bright TPMS warning light indicates a problem with a tire pressure sensor, assuming there isn’t a leak in your tire. One of them might be damaged, the lithium-ion battery might be dead, or the TPMS itself might have an internal problem. You’ll need to get your Tire Pressure Monitoring System repaired in any of these scenarios.
Quick Tip: Recheck the tire to ensure it is inflated to the correct air pressure if the TPMS warning light illuminates again after you have inflated it. Low tire pressure indicates an air leak, which requires repair or tire replacement.
Why won’t my tire pressure warning light come on?

In what location is the TPMS sensor?
In the US, direct TPMS usage is more prevalent. The sensors are either housed in the tire pressure valve, which also serves as an antenna, or they are band-clamped to the wheel rim. These gadgets deliver the data to an on-board computer.
