How to Reset the Outlander Tire Pressure Light?
1 Answers
The method to reset the Outlander tire pressure warning light is to inflate the tires to the normal pressure range; then start the engine, use the control buttons on the left side of the steering wheel to navigate the trip computer, find the "Tire" option, click to enter, and press and hold the "Trip Computer Control" button on the left control panel to deactivate, which will reset the tire pressure warning light. Tire pressure monitoring automatically checks the tire pressure in real-time while driving and alerts the driver to leaks or low pressure to ensure driving safety. There are three common types of tire pressure monitoring systems: Direct TPMS: Direct tire pressure monitoring devices use pressure sensors installed in each tire to directly measure tire pressure. The pressure information is transmitted wirelessly from inside the tire to a central receiver module, which then displays the data for each tire. The system automatically alerts the driver if the tire pressure is too low or if there is a leak. Indirect TPMS: When the pressure in a tire decreases, the vehicle's weight causes the rolling radius of that tire to become smaller, making it rotate faster than the other wheels. By comparing the differences in rotation speed between tires, the system monitors tire pressure. Indirect tire pressure warning systems essentially rely on calculating the rolling radius to monitor pressure. Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Overview: This system combines the advantages of both direct and indirect systems. It is equipped with direct sensors in two diagonally opposite tires and includes a four-wheel indirect system. Compared to a fully direct system, this hybrid system reduces costs and overcomes the limitation of indirect systems, which cannot detect simultaneous low pressure in multiple tires. However, it still cannot provide real-time pressure data for all four tires like a direct system.
