How to Reset Mercedes-Benz TPMS Light
If your tyre pressure warning light is still on after inflating your tyres to the correct pressure, you likely need to reset the system manually.
⚠️ Safety First
Before attempting a reset, always physically check the pressure of all 4 tyres (and the spare) with a gauge. Resetting the light without inflating the tyres is dangerous and defeats the safety purpose of the system.
Method 1: Infotainment Screen
Most common on modern Mercedes-Benz models (2014+)
- Turn the ignition to ON (engine off) or start the engine.
- Press the MENU or CAR button on your infotainment system.
- Navigate to Vehicle Status or Service & Checks.
- Select Tyre Pressure Monitoring or Tyre Pressure Loss Indicator.
- Select Store Tyre Pressure or Reset.
- Confirm when asked "Do all 4 tyre pressures match the required values?".
Method 2: Physical Button
Common on older models or base trims
- Look for a button with the (!) symbol (TPMS icon). This is often located:
- Inside the glove box
- To the right/left of the steering wheel
- Near the gear stick or handbrake
- Turn the ignition to ON (do not start engine).
- Press and hold factors the TPMS button for 3-5 seconds until the dashboard light blinks or you hear a beep.
- Release the button and start the car. The light should turn off.
Method 3: Auto-Learn / Driving
For vehicles with active sensors
Some Mercedes-Benz vehicles automatically detect new pressures after a short drive.
- Inflate all tyres to the correct cold pressure.
- Drive the vehicle at speeds above 20 mph (30 km/h) for at least 10-15 minutes.
- The system will automatically reset and clear the warning light once it verifies the pressures are stable.
