Maintaining proper tire pressure in Omaha is essential for the safety, performance, and efficiency of your GMC vehicle. If your tire pressure light stays on even after inflating your tires, you may need a GMC tire pressure monitor reset. Learning how to reset the GMC tire pressure monitor ensures your system is accurately detecting pressure levels and keeping you informed.

At Sid Dillon Buick GMC Fremont, we want to make tire maintenance simple and stress-free. Follow this guide to reset the GMC tire pressure sensor on your truck or SUV.

When Should You Reset the GMC Tire Pressure Monitor?

The GMC tire pressure monitor reset is necessary if:

• You recently filled or adjusted your tire pressure, but the TPMS light remains on.
• You rotated or replaced your tires.
• Your tire pressure monitor is showing incorrect readings.
• You experience extreme Lincoln temperature shifts that affect tire pressure.

How to Reset the GMC Tire Pressure Monitor

The process to reset the GMC tire pressure sensor varies slightly by model. However, these general steps work for most GMC trucks and SUVs:

Manual GMC Tire Pressure Monitor Reset

1. Inflate your tires properly. Ensure all four tires are set to the correct PSI recommended in your owner’s manual.
2. Turn the ignition to “On”—without starting the engine, switch your key or push-start to the “On” position.
3. Press and hold the TPMS reset button, which is usually located under the steering wheel. Hold it until the TPMS light blinks three times, then release it.
4. Start the vehicle and drive—drive at least 20 minutes at 25+ mph to allow the system to recalibrate.

Reset the GMC Tire Pressure Sensor with a TPMS Relearn Tool

For models that require a TPMS relearn tool, follow these steps:

1. Turn the vehicle to “On” without starting the engine.
2. Use the vehicle’s TPMS reset mode—press and hold the trip odometer or infotainment screen settings to access TPMS learning mode.
3. Scan each tire sensor—place the TPMS reset tool on the tire valve stems in order (front left, front right, rear right, rear left).
4. Wait for the horn or dashboard confirmation. Your GMC will confirm the reset once all sensors are programmed.
