How to reset the oil life and tire pressure lights, by make
The button sequence differs by brand and often by model year. GarageDex lists the manufacturer procedure for each make, with its source. Pick the light, then your make.
Key takeaways
- The oil life light is a reminder on a timer or an algorithm - resetting it does not change the oil. Change the oil first, then reset.
- The tire pressure light means low pressure or a sensor that lost its pairing. Set every tire to the door-jamb pressure before any reset.
- Many brands relearn TPMS sensors automatically after a few miles; others need a button, a dashboard menu, or a tool.
