How to Reset the TPMS Warning Light on Haval Big Dog?

[EmeryRose]

Haval Big Dog TPMS warning light reset method is as follows: First, ensure the key is turned to the 2nd position. Use the left steering wheel menu button to display the TPMS interface on the instrument cluster. Then press the upward arrow button on the left side of the steering wheel - the dashboard will show RRFI. Next, press the (R) button on the instrument panel to display + and - signs. Finally, press the + button on the right side of the steering wheel and wait 10 seconds before turning off the ignition. Restart the vehicle to complete the TPMS light reset. There are generally three reasons for abnormal tire pressure warnings: Abnormal tire pressure: The system triggers warnings when pressure falls below 1.8 bar or exceeds 3.0 bar. In this case, tire inspection and pressure adjustment are required. TPMS not reset: After tire inflation, failure to reset the TPMS causes the system to retain previous data, triggering the warning light. Simply perform a TPMS reset to resolve this. Damaged TPMS sensor: The tire pressure sensors, installed inside tires and connected to the valve stems, monitor pressure directly. If damaged by road hazards, they'll trigger the warning light. Damaged sensors must be replaced with new components.

Last time my tire pressure monitoring light came on, it took me a while to figure it out. For the Haval Big Dog, the normal tire pressure range is around 2.3-2.5 bar, with specific values listed on the door frame label. First, check all four tires for obvious leaks or nails, and use a tire pressure gauge to measure the actual pressure. If it's low, use the onboard air pump to inflate to the standard value. Then start the car, press the menu button on the right side of the steering wheel to enter the dashboard settings, find the tire pressure reset option, and confirm. After driving for a few minutes, the light should go off. If the reset fails, the sensor might be covered in mud—wipe the inside of the wheel hub with a wet cloth and try again. Once, after resetting, the light came back on during a highway drive—turned out the right rear tire had a slow leak and needed patching.

I was also troubled by the tire pressure warning light when I first got my car. Resetting the tire pressure on the Haval Big Dog is quite simple: when the car is cold, inflate the tires to the standard pressure (you can check the recommended value on the dashboard), fasten your seatbelt, and start the vehicle. Press the menu button on the steering wheel to scroll left or right until you see the tire option in the settings, then hold the OK button for five seconds. The dashboard will display a message indicating the tire pressure reset was successful. Note that this must be done on a flat surface, as slopes can affect the detection. If the light comes on in summer, don’t rush to reset it—it might be a false alarm due to thermal expansion and contraction. Drive for about two kilometers first to observe. The spare tire might occasionally trigger the alarm, so check if it’s leaking. If the light stays on after resetting, you may need to check the tire pressure sensor—replacing a module costs around 200 to 300 yuan.

I've summarized three steps to deal with the tire pressure warning light: First, check the tire pressure by using an electronic tire pressure gauge to measure all four wheels, and inflate if pressure is low. Then, reset the vehicle system - after starting the car, navigate to the vehicle settings menu via the steering wheel controls and find the tire pressure calibration function to confirm. Finally, drive for ten minutes to see if the light turns off. Once when my tire pressure was normal but the light stayed on, I discovered it was because I had switched to snow tires without rematching the tire pressure monitoring system. When washing your car regularly, remember to rinse the sensor area on the inner side of the wheel hub, as mud buildup can cause false alarms. In winter, tire pressure often drops due to lower temperatures, and inflating to 2.5bar is the safest approach. The reset operation is illustrated on page 87 of the manual, which is more reliable than online tutorials.

Don't panic when the Haval Big Dog's tire pressure warning light comes on - 90% of the time it indicates abnormal tire pressure. Immediately slow down and move to a safe area, then manually check the tire pressure for the most accurate reading. The standard values are marked on the driver's door frame, usually around 2.3 bar. After inflating, restart the vehicle and use the steering wheel controls to select the system settings, then press the confirm button when you see the tire pressure monitoring reset option. Avoid opening doors or turning off the engine during this process. Last time my light kept flashing after reset, I discovered it was because non-OEM wheels changed the sensor distance - a computer recalibration fixed it. Occasionally rough roads can trigger false alarms too - just park and restart. Remember to keep the spare tire at 2.8 bar high pressure to avoid constant alerts. At the dealership, they use professional equipment to complete the reset in just one minute.

As a seasoned driver, let me teach you two tricks to reset the tire pressure light. First trick: Inflate the tires to 2.4 bar, start the vehicle, press the settings button on the left side of the steering wheel, navigate to the auxiliary functions, and find the tire reset option. Note that you must be in P (Park) gear to perform this operation. Second trick: Swipe left on the central control screen to enter vehicle settings, where you'll also find a tire pressure calibration option in the quick menu. If the light remains on after resetting, it might be due to a slow leak from a nail puncture—check the dashboard to see which wheel icon is flashing. Last time, my tire pressure was normal but the alarm went off; it turned out the sensor got wet during heavy rain and worked fine again after two days in the sun. If the tire pressure light comes on for the first time in a new car, it might be because the factory settings weren't activated—just visit the 4S shop to update the program. Also, sensors covered in mud after off-road driving can trigger false alarms.
