How to reset the tire pressure warning on Octavia?
1 Answers
First, check if any of the four tires are punctured. If none are found, then inspect the tire pressure of all four tires to ensure that the left and right tire pressures for the front and rear pairs are equal or similar. If there is a significant difference between the left and right tires in a pair, the warning will reappear shortly after being reset. If none of the above issues are present, turn off the ignition, then turn it back on, and press and hold the tire pressure button on the center console. The warning on the heads-up display will then be cleared. Below are the methods of tire pressure monitoring: 1. Direct tire pressure monitoring: Direct tire pressure monitoring systems use pressure sensors installed in each tire to directly measure the tire pressure. The pressure information is transmitted wirelessly from inside the tire to a central receiver module, which then displays the tire pressure data for each tire. The system will automatically issue a warning if the tire pressure is too low or if there is a leak. 2. Indirect tire pressure monitoring: The working principle of indirect tire pressure monitoring is that when the pressure in a tire decreases, the vehicle's weight will cause the rolling radius of that wheel to become smaller, resulting in a faster rotation speed compared to the other wheels. By comparing the differences in rotation speeds between the tires, the system monitors the tire pressure. Indirect tire pressure warning systems essentially rely on calculating the rolling radius of the tires to monitor pressure. 3. Introduction to Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS): This system combines the advantages of both direct and indirect systems. It is equipped with direct sensors in two diagonally opposite tires and includes a four-wheel indirect system. Compared to using only a direct system, this hybrid system can reduce costs and overcome the limitation of indirect systems, which cannot detect when multiple tires simultaneously have low pressure.
