How to remove the dashboard display after car tire repair?

Press the three buttons on the lower right of the steering wheel. Adjust to personalized settings. There is a tire pressure calibration option. Press and hold the reset button to eliminate the dashboard display after car tire repair. Below are some tire maintenance measures: 1. Ensure correct tire pressure: The standard tire pressure for different vehicles' front and rear wheels and spare tires varies. The standard tire pressure data provided by the car manufacturer is usually posted on the vehicle's door pillar and other locations. If the pressure is increased by 25%, the tire's lifespan will be shortened by about 30%. 2. Tire appearance inspection: Regularly check the tires for bulges, cracks, cuts, punctures, and abnormal wear. Pay special attention to the wear on the tire tread and edges. Abnormal wear is often caused by poor alignment or incorrect tire pressure. 3. Keep the tire surface clean: Maintaining cleanliness is one of the key factors in extending tire life. Especially in winter, pay attention to tire cleanliness before and after driving. Before driving, check if the tire tread is covered by ice or snow.
I've been driving for years, and it's quite common for dashboard lights to stay on after a tire repair. Once, after patching my front right tire, the tire pressure warning light kept flashing, which was really unnerving. Later, I learned it was because the tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) wasn't reset: during the repair, the tire was moved, possibly changing the sensor's position or resetting its data. The solution is to first check the owner's manual for the reset procedure—some cars have a button near the driver's door or under the steering wheel; holding it for 10 seconds turns off the light. If there's no button, driving for 15-20 minutes usually allows the system to auto-calibrate the new position. The key is to first ensure the tire pressure is adjusted to the standard value (e.g., 30-35 psi) before resetting. Ignoring the light can be distracting and may trigger false alarms. I recommend regularly checking tire pressure and keeping a simple pressure gauge in the car to prevent such issues—it's both safer and saves money.
