How do you check tire pressure on a Hyundai?
Remove the valve cap of the tire that was indicated as being low on air. Press the end of the pressure gauge into the nozzle to measure the current air pressure. Press the end of the compressed air hose into the valve for a few seconds to add air to the tire. Check the pressure again with the gauge.
How long does it take for tire pressure sensor to show?
Your vehicle is equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system that is designed to display the air pressure of each tire while driving. The sensors will start to display the individual pressures within a few minutes of driving.
Where do I find the tire pressure sensor on my Toyota?
On Toyotas, apparently the only way to activate the sensors is with the Toyota TPMS tool or scan tool. Your mileage may vary. You’ll need to find out exactly what procedure your vehicle needs any time you rotate tires or install winter tires. Consult your owner’s manual, or the factory service manual.

Why is my tire pressure sensor warning light on?

What should I do if my tire pressure light is still on?

Where do I find the recommended tire pressure?
Recommended tire pressure can be very confusing. There’s a number listed on the inside of your of driver’s door, a number on the sidewall of the tire, and another number in the owner’s manual. In every case, you must ignore the tire pressure listed on the tire and on the sticker inside your door.
What should the tire pressure be for over inflation?
At best, inflating to these pressures will make your vehicle ride roughly and make your tires wear prematurely. At worst, over-inflation can lead to catastrophic tire failure…so read your owner’s manual and inflate accordingly (most vehicles recommend tire pressures between 32 and 35 psi).
