How to reset the tire pressure light on the 2018 Magotan?
2 Answers
The tire pressure monitoring light on the 2018 Magotan indicates abnormal tire pressure. First, adjust the tire pressure yourself. If the light still doesn't turn off after adjustment, it means you need to manually reset it. You can find the settings button on the car's central console to perform a tire pressure reset, usually by pressing the SET key. Specific steps are as follows: 1. Drive slowly to a safe place to park, then turn off the engine. Wait 1-2 minutes and restart the vehicle. After the vehicle stabilizes, check the tire pressure value displayed on the dashboard; 2. Both insufficient and excessive tire pressure can cause the light to come on. You can slowly drive to a car repair shop or auto beauty shop to adjust the tire pressure. If you have your own inflation device, you can adjust it on the spot; 3. While inflating or deflating the tires, observe the tire pressure light on your dashboard. Stop inflating when the light turns off. If overinflated, release the excess air; 4. If the vehicle does not support manual operation, ensure the tire pressure is normal and have a technician use a specialized decoder to clear the fault code.
I drive a 2018 Volkswagen Magotan. Last time the tire pressure warning light came on, I was a bit confused, but I managed to handle it. Actually, resetting the light is quite simple: First, make sure the car is parked and stable, shift to P gear, do not start the engine, just turn on the ignition. Then, find the 'Vehicle Settings' menu on the central control screen, tap into it, select 'Tire Pressure Monitoring System', and press the 'Reset' or 'Store' button. Remember, before resetting, check if the tire pressure is normal. You can use a tire pressure gauge to measure the pressure of all four tires, ensuring they are around 2.3-2.5 bar. If the light remains on after resetting, there might be an issue with the sensor, such as a dead battery or a nail in the tire that hasn't been noticed. It's recommended to check the tire pressure once a month, especially before long trips—safety first. Don't worry, the car is designed quite user-friendly, and the operation only takes a few minutes.
