Where is the tire pressure reset button for the Touareg?

The tire pressure reset button for the Touareg is located among the center console buttons. When abnormal tire pressure is detected, it will be displayed on the center console. After repairing the tire pressure, you need to manually clear the warning while the vehicle is parked. What to do if the tire pressure is insufficient: If no damage is visible on the car's tires, simply inflate them to the normal tire pressure and then reset the tire pressure system. If upon inspection you find that the tire has been punctured, drive to a car repair shop promptly to have it patched, then reinflate the tire. If the low tire pressure warning appears again some time after inflation, but there are no punctures in the tire, it may be due to air leakage caused by a deformed wheel rim. It is recommended to check the wheel rim and replace it if necessary. The working principle of the tire pressure monitoring system is: It uses pressure sensors installed inside the tires to measure the tire pressure, and wireless transmitters to send the pressure information from inside the tire to a central receiver module.
Recently working on my brother's Teramont tire pressure light in the garage. The reset method is actually in the electronic system. First confirm all four tires are inflated to standard pressure. There's a VIEW button below the right side of the steering wheel - press it to enter the instrument menu. Use the directional keys to find Settings, scroll to 'Tire' option where you'll see the TPMS reset. Key point: Must be in ignition-off state, hold OK button for 3 seconds until dashboard shows flashing tire icon. Then start the engine and wait for self-check completion. If reset fails on rainy days, it might be weak sensor signals due to water - wiping the wheel hubs usually solves it. This design is much more convenient than old physical buttons, though first-timers might struggle to find the entry point.
