How to reset the tire pressure light on a 2019 Outlander?
2 Answers
Find a safe place to park, then turn off the engine and wait for two minutes before restarting the vehicle. After the vehicle runs stably, check the tire pressure value on the dashboard. Insufficient tire pressure or overinflated tires may cause the tire pressure light to illuminate. Drive the car to a maintenance center to adjust the tire pressure and inspect the vehicle body. If the tire pressure light still does not turn off, you need to manually reset it. You can perform a tire pressure reset on the car's central dashboard.
I remember last time helping my friend deal with the tire pressure warning light issue on his 2019 Outlander, which is quite common. Don't rush to turn off the light - first make sure all tire pressures are correct by inflating them to the recommended values listed on the door frame label (usually around 2.5 bar). Sometimes the light will turn off automatically after driving for a few minutes. If it remains on, access the vehicle settings menu: after starting the engine, use the left steering wheel button to scroll to the Maintenance option, select TPMS Reset and confirm. The light should disappear immediately, but this only works if there are no actual tire defects like leaks or sensor problems. I've encountered false alerts before, mostly caused by dusty sensors or weak batteries - developing a habit of checking tire pressure monthly can prevent most issues. If multiple attempts fail, don't force it - visit a professional shop to inspect the sensors or use diagnostic tools for proper reset. Safety comes first - always stop to check tire conditions when the warning light appears.
