How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light (TPMS) on a Tesla Model S

Steps from the 2026 Tesla Model S owner's manual (After replacing one or more wheels (not after replacing only a tire)).

Set each tire to the pressure on the Tire and Loading Information label, checking when tires are cold.
Reinstall the valve caps after adjusting the pressure.
Drive over 15 mph (25 km/h) for a short amount of time to activate the TPMS.
After a wheel replacement, keep driving over 15 mph (25 km/h) so the sensors relearn automatically within two minutes.

The Tire Pressure indicator light does not immediately turn off when you adjust tire pressure.
If the indicator flashes for one minute at power on, a TPMS fault is detected; schedule service.
