How to reset the tire pressure warning light on a 2021 Bora?

Turn on the ignition switch and hold the "Tire Pressure Monitoring Reset Button" for several seconds to reset. Visit a service station to reset using specialized diagnostic equipment. It is recommended to perform the tire pressure reset operation after inspecting the tires and tire pressure.

I once encountered a tire pressure warning light issue with my 2021 Bora, almost forgot to share this. First, check the air pressure in all tires, including the spare, ensuring they're around the recommended 2.5 BAR. If low, use an air pump to inflate them. Then start the car, locate the tire pressure reset button either on the left side of the steering wheel or in the central control settings menu, and hold it for a few seconds until the light goes off. If that doesn't work, drive for 10-15 minutes to let the system auto-calibrate. In my case, there was a slow leak in the left rear tire causing the light to repeatedly come on, and it only stopped after getting the tire repaired. Never compromise on safety - unstable tire pressure increases braking distance, which is especially dangerous at high speeds. I'd recommend buying a tire pressure gauge for regular checks as prevention is better than cure; don't wait until the warning light comes on to panic. Once in winter, the light came on due to a sudden temperature drop - not an actual fault, just caused by pressure changes.

When the tire pressure light in my 2021 Bora comes on, here's how I handle it: First, quickly check the tire pressure to ensure each wheel is within the standard 2.4-2.5 BAR range. If it's over, release some air; if it's under, inflate to the proper level. Start the engine, locate the tire pressure monitoring system settings in the main menu—usually accessible via the center console or steering wheel controls—and select the reset option. Wait for the light to turn off. After driving for a while, the system will adapt. If the light remains on, the sensor might be faulty and need replacement. I make it a habit to check tire pressure during routine maintenance to avoid surprises. The tire pressure system in this generation Bora isn't complicated, so DIY fixes save both money and time. Seasonal changes, like the onset of summer, can trigger false alarms due to thermal expansion and contraction—resetting usually solves the issue.

For the 2021 Bora, when the tire pressure warning light comes on, it must be addressed immediately as it concerns safety. Here's what I always do: First, check the tire pressure of all tires to ensure they are normal, with around 2.5 BAR recommended. If the pressure is incorrect, use a home air pump to inflate them, then drive for a while and perform a tire pressure reset via the reset button in the vehicle settings menu. If that doesn’t work, consider that the sensor might be faulty and requires professional inspection. I also advise not exceeding 60 km/h when the light is on to reduce the risk of a tire blowout. Checking tire pressure before long trips is a good habit to prevent issues. After a simple fix, keep an emergency air pump in the car—better safe than sorry.
