Here's the procedure:
1. Check and Inflate Tires: Inflate all four tires to the recommended pressure. This pressure is listed on a sticker located usually on the driver's side doorjamb or in the owner's manual. Don't forget the spare tire if you have one.
2. Drive: Drive the vehicle for 10-20 minutes at a speed above 20 mph (32 km/h). This allows the TPMS sensors to transmit the new pressure readings to the vehicle's computer.
3. Monitor the Warning Light: After driving, the TPMS warning light (usually a tire with an exclamation point inside) should turn off if the tire pressures are correct.
If the warning light remains on after driving:
* Double-check tire pressure: Ensure you've inflated all tires to the correct pressure, including the spare if applicable.
* Check for leaks: Inspect your tires for any visible punctures or slow leaks.
* Consider sensor issues: If the problem persists, one or more TPMS sensors might be malfunctioning. This requires professional diagnosis and potentially sensor replacement. A tire shop or Chrysler dealership can diagnose and repair this.
Important Note: If you've recently rotated your tires, the system might take slightly longer to reset. If you've had any tire work done (like a repair or replacement), the sensor might need to be re-learned by a mechanic using a TPMS tool. This is especially true if you replaced a tire with a used one that already has a sensor in it, as it might have been programmed to a different vehicle.
