Default TPMS ?

My tire pressure on all 4 wheels are to spec. I have my TPMS light that went on. How do i go about resetting it for the light to go away?

either theres too little or too much air (even though you said to spec). after you reset all your tire pressures drive it for about 2 minutes. it'll go away. if not then you have something in your tire.

which light do you have? the one that says TPMS or ( ! ) ? if its TPMS go to the dealer to have it reprogrammed. i had that issue the first 10 miles i left the dealer. they didnt program it right.

Another option would be to go to Discount Tire/America's Tire Co. (if there is one near you) they should have a scan tool that can reset the light for you. My store has one and it only takes a minute.

Those TPMS sensors are finnicky. My Mazda had it and any time it got really cold the system thought I was low on air.

cool, what if i replace the stock wheels with aftermarket wheels. My TPMS light will always be on until i add the sensors to the wheels.
