TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) reset procedures vary by vehicle make/model, sensor type (direct/indirect), and whether you’ve rotated tires, replaced sensors, or inflated/deflated tires. Below are universal, step-by-step methods, sorted from simplest to vehicle-specific.
Pre-Reset Check (Critical First Step)
Inflate all 4 tires (plus spare, if equipped) to the placard pressure (listed on driver’s door jamb, fuel cap, or owner’s manual).
Ensure no tires are underinflated, overinflated, or damaged.
Confirm the TPMS warning light is on / flashing, or the dash shows incorrect pressure readings.
