Emgrand GL tire pressure light reset method: Inflate the tires to the standard pressure to eliminate the tire pressure light; or press the MENU button on the turn signal lever, select the tire pressure display item in the mileage/fuel information menu, and then press the Set/Clr button. The driver information center will display "Tire Pressure Relearn," select "Yes," press the Set/Clr button, and the horn will sound twice to reset. There are generally three reasons for abnormal tire pressure: Abnormal tire pressure: Usually, an alarm will trigger if the pressure is below 1.8 bar or above 3.0 bar. In this case, tire inspection and pressure adjustment are required. Tire pressure monitoring not reset: After inflating the tires, if the tire pressure is not reset in time, the tire pressure monitoring system will still record the previous data, causing the tire pressure monitoring light to illuminate. A simple tire pressure reset will resolve this issue. Damaged tire pressure sensor: The tire pressure sensor, which monitors tire pressure, is installed inside the tire and connected to the tire inflation valve. If the sensor is damaged due to impact while driving, the tire pressure warning light will illuminate. For sensor damage, the only solution is to replace it with a new part.
When I drove the Emgrand GL before, I encountered the tire pressure warning light and managed to reset it myself. First, ensure all tire pressures are correct, typically between 2.3 to 2.5 bar—check the label on the door frame for specifics. Start the vehicle but don’t drive, then locate the small button below the left side of the steering wheel or on the dashboard. Press and hold it for a few seconds until the light turns off. If there’s no button, manually reset it via the tire pressure option in the vehicle settings menu. After resetting, drive a few kilometers for the system to self-calibrate and stabilize. Don’t assume the light turning off means everything’s fine—abnormal tire pressure accelerates tire wear and increases fuel consumption. I measure the pressure monthly to prevent surprises. Before long trips, I inspect even more carefully—safe driving relies on it.
As a friend who has been driving for ten years, the tire pressure light is a minor issue. To eliminate the light on the Emgrand GL, first inflate to the standard value and adjust each tire pressure evenly; start the engine and operate in place, the reset button is usually near the center console, press it until the light goes off. You can also reset the tire pressure monitoring in the car's settings. After resetting, drive a short distance to let the sensors update. If the light keeps coming on, it may be due to a slow leak in the tire or aging sensors, so go to a repair shop for diagnosis as soon as possible. Unstable tire pressure leads to poor handling and a high risk of tire blowout. Develop the habit of checking and maintaining it every quarter to save money and worry.
