How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light on a Mercedes-Benz | Warwick, RI

Why Did My Mercedes-Benz Tire Pressure Light Turn On?

Your Mercedes-Benz tire pressure light is part of the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), designed to alert you when tire pressure falls below the recommended level. This can occur due to:

• Seasonal temperature changes causing air pressure to drop
• A small leak or puncture in one or more tires
• Overinflated or underinflated tires after service or a refill
• A faulty TPMS sensor

If the light stays on after adding air, it may need to be manually reset, or there may be an underlying issue needing service.

How Do You Reset the Tire Pressure Light in a Mercedes-Benz?

Resetting the tire pressure light is usually simple, especially after inflating your tires to the correct PSI. Follow these general Mercedes-Benz tire pressure light reset tips:

• Step 1: Check your tire pressure using a digital gauge. Inflate all tires (including the spare, if equipped with a sensor) to the recommended PSI, typically listed on the driver’s side door frame.
• Step 2: Start the engine and let the vehicle idle for a few minutes.
• Step 3: Access the instrument cluster using the steering wheel controls. Navigate to the “Service” or “Tire Pressure” menu.
• Step 4: Select “Reset” or “Tire Pressure Monitor Active”, then drive at 15+ mph for a few minutes to allow the system to recalibrate.
• Step 5: If the light doesn’t turn off, schedule a diagnostic at our Mercedes-Benz Service Center in Warwick, RI to inspect for sensor faults or leaks.

Always consult your owner’s manual for model-specific procedures.

What Should You Do If the Light Won’t Turn Off?

If your tire pressure warning light remains on even after a reset attempt, it may indicate:

• A damaged TPMS sensor that needs replacement
• A slow leak or puncture in one of your tires
• Incorrect tire size or non-OEM tires affecting sensor accuracy
• An issue with the TPMS control module

Let our Mercedes-Benz tire experts in Warwick, RI run a quick scan and visual inspection to identify and resolve the issue promptly.
