To reset the tire pressure light on a Chevy Spark, drive at or above 50 mph for 10 minutes. Turn off the car, then set the ignition key to the “On” position without starting the engine. Press and hold the TPMS reset button until the tire pressure light blinks three times. Release the button afterward.
After correcting the tire pressures, turn on the ignition without starting the engine. Press the gas pedal three times within 10 seconds. This action will signal the vehicle’s system to reset the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS).
Next, drive your Chevy Spark for a short distance, approximately 10 to 15 minutes. This allows the TPMS to recalibrate and recognize the new tire pressures. If the tire pressure light remains illuminated, you may need to check for any underlying issues, such as a damaged sensor or a leak.
For further troubleshooting, consider using an OBD-II scanner. This tool can help identify fault codes related to the TPMS. Addressing these issues will ensure your Chevy Spark’s tire pressure monitoring system functions correctly for safe driving.
In the following section, we will explore how to detect tire pressure problems before they require a reset.
