The tire pressure reset button for the base model Buick Excelle is located next to the gear shift lever. It is used to clear the tire pressure warning when the vehicle's dashboard displays an alert. To use it, press and hold this button for 3 seconds. The specific steps are as follows: 1. Depress the brake pedal of the base model Buick Excelle to prepare for engine start. 2. Press the one-touch start button of the base model Buick Excelle. 3. All dashboard lights of the base model Buick Excelle will illuminate, indicating the engine has started. 4. Inflate all four tires of the base model Buick Excelle to the standard pressure. 5. Press the tire pressure reset button of the base model Buick Excelle to complete the operation.
My 2016 Buick Excelle base model also had the issue of the tire pressure warning light staying on. The reset procedure is actually quite simple: First, check all tire pressures in cold condition to ensure they meet the standard values (usually listed on the door pillar label). After confirming proper tire pressure, start the engine and keep it running. Then locate a small button near the steering wheel left side or instrument cluster - typically marked 'Reset' or with a similar icon - press and hold it firmly for about 5-10 seconds until the TPMS light completely turns off. If unsuccessful on first attempt, it might indicate unstable tire pressure or incorrect button location - just recheck and adjust accordingly. Monthly tire pressure checks are recommended as routine maintenance, which not only prevents warning lights but also improves fuel efficiency and extends tire life. For persistent issues, visiting a 4S dealership for professional assistance would be the quickest solution.
