How to Reset the Tire Pressure on Cadillac ATS-L?

Cadillac ATS-L tire pressure reset method: 1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position to illuminate all indicator lights on the dashboard. 2. Press the OK button on the left side of the steering wheel, then press the right button to navigate to the maintenance interface. 3. Press the downward arrow button on the steering wheel to access the tire pressure interface. 4. Wait until the dashboard prompts that the low-pressure run-flat indicator is activated. Then press the OK button on the steering wheel to confirm. 5. The dashboard will indicate whether the tire pressure is normal. Press the arrow button to select 'Yes' and then press the OK button to confirm. The prerequisite is that the tire pressure of all four wheels must be consistent beforehand; otherwise, the reset will not be successful. 6. After completing the tire pressure reset operation, turn off and restart the engine until the tire pressure reset success is displayed.

Last time when I was driving my Cadillac ATSL on the highway, the tire pressure warning light came on, so I went to the dealership to learn the reset method from a technician. It's actually quite simple. First, sit in the car without starting the engine, just turn on the electrical power. Then look at the buttons on the right side of the steering wheel, there's a menu button that looks like a folder. Press it and options will appear on the instrument cluster. Scroll through to find the tire pressure reset or reset system, select it and press confirm. At this point, it will prompt you to start the car and drive at a steady speed for 20 minutes, and the system will automatically calibrate the new values. But let me remind you, if the tire pressure light stays on, there's probably an actual leak and you'll need to get the tire repaired - you can't just rely on resetting to get by. That time after I reset it, the light was still on, and it turned out there was a nail in the tire.

Resetting the tire pressure monitoring system on the Cadillac ATSL is not difficult. First, ensure the vehicle is in the power-on state without ignition. On the right-hand control stalk of the steering wheel, there are combination operations with the select and return buttons. I usually navigate to the trip computer menu to find the tire pressure option. After selecting reset, it's recommended to drive at a steady speed for about 20 kilometers to allow the sensors to reacquire data. Remember to perform the reset only after the tire pressure has returned to normal values—I've seen cases where people forced a reset with low pressure and ruined their tires. Additionally, if the spare tire is equipped with a sensor, it should be checked as well. These luxury car tire pressure systems are quite sophisticated; resetting is for calibration, not fixing faults. If a sensor is faulty, it needs to be replaced separately.

When I first drove the ATS, I also couldn't figure out the tire pressure reset. After a few tries, I got it. After you sit in the car and turn on the ignition, look at the row of small icons at the bottom of the dashboard. There's a round knob and up/down buttons below the right side of the steering wheel. Rotate the knob to find the tire icon, then press and hold the center button for three seconds to confirm the reset. The screen will then prompt you to drive so the system can relearn. Don't worry, just drive slowly to the supermarket to buy a coffee, and the system will reset by then. By the way, a cold tire pressure of 2.5 bar is most suitable, and don't overinflate in hot weather. This reset operation is really much simpler than getting a tooth filling, and even a girl can learn it in a minute.
