How to reset the tire pressure light on Golf 7?
2 Answers
Before resetting the tire pressure light on Golf 7, first confirm whether the tire pressure is normal. If the tire pressure is normal, you can turn on the ignition switch, then press and hold the SET button in front of the gear lever for 3-5 seconds, and the tire pressure light will be reset. Alternatively, you can also set it in the car computer by selecting the CAR button, clicking on settings, entering the tire options, and then selecting the tire pressure light reset. Here are some additional details: 1. Golf calibration wheel: The tire pressure reset button for Golf is located on the tire pressure monitoring indicator button at the lower part of the central auxiliary instrument panel. There are two types of calibration tire monitoring indicators: A and B. 2. Tire monitoring indicator (Type A): After changing the tire pressure or replacing one or more wheels, the tire monitoring indicator must be recalibrated. It must also be recalibrated after wheel rotation. 3. Golf calibration tire monitoring indicator (Type B): After changing the tire pressure or replacing one or more wheels, the tire monitoring indicator must be recalibrated. It must also be recalibrated after wheel rotation.
When I first drove the Volkswagen Golf 7, I also encountered the situation where the tire pressure light came on. Later, I learned the reset method from a car enthusiasts group. Actually, it's quite simple: first, start the car and ensure the tire pressure in all four tires is normal (you can use a gauge to check, otherwise the reset won't work). Then, navigate to the menu on the central control screen, select the tire pressure monitoring option in the vehicle settings, find the reset button, and confirm. After resetting, drive for a few minutes, and the system will automatically recalibrate the data. If the light remains on, it might be a false alarm from the sensor or an actual issue, and I'd need to visit the 4S shop for a check. It's a good habit to check the tire pressure every season to avoid such minor annoyances.
