1. Check Tire Pressure: Use a reliable tire pressure gauge to check the pressure in each tire, including the spare. Refer to the sticker on your driver's side doorjamb or your owner's manual for the recommended tire pressure (it will vary based on load).
2. Inflate Tires: Inflate each tire to the correct pressure.
3. Drive the Vehicle: Drive your Bonneville for a few miles (usually 5-10 miles). This allows the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) to resense the pressure and recalibrate.
4. Check the Light: After driving, the low tire pressure warning light should turn off.
If the light remains on after following these steps:
* Check for leaks: Make sure you haven't got a slow leak in any of your tires.
* Faulty sensor: One or more of your TPMS sensors may be faulty. This requires professional diagnosis and potentially sensor replacement.
* TPMS System malfunction: There could be a problem with the TPMS system itself. This also requires professional attention.
* Consult your owner's manual: Your owner's manual may have specific instructions for your vehicle's TPMS system.
If you've checked tire pressure and there are no leaks, and the light still stays on, it's best to take your Bonneville to a tire shop or mechanic for diagnosis. Ignoring a persistent low tire pressure light can be dangerous.
