Reset Mazda Tire Pressure Sensor TPMS Light

Learn how to reset the Mazda TPMS light. The Mazda TPMS indicator light will come on and stay illuminated if one or more of the tires on your Mazda have low air pressure. Adjust the tire pressure and repair it in a tire shop if the air pressure still decreases.

Procedure

1. Inflate all the tires to the recommended tire pressure. The typical tire pressure is 35 PSI. The tires are recommended to cool down, but the procedure will work. Recommended tire pressure for your Mazda can be found on the driver’s door jamb or the fuel tank door.

   

We recommend using a digital tire pressure gauge to check the tire pressure.

2. Turn on the ignition. If you have a keyless start Mazda, press the Start/Stop button, but don’t press the brake pedal. All the instrument cluster lights, including the TPMS warning light (tire with exclamation symbol), will turn on.

3. Press the TPMS switch on the left side of the dash next to the steering wheel. Hold the TPMS switch pressed until you see the TPMS flash twice.

4. You will hear a beep Soon after the TPMS light flashes. This confirms that the TPMS light on your Mazda has been reset.

TPMS stays on, but tire pressure is correct

In some cases, the TPMS warning light may come and stay on even though the tires don’t need more air, meaning they are all inflated to 35 PSI. The most common problems that can trigger the low tire pressure warning light are:

• The TPMS light on a Mazda could come on due to a defective TPMS sensor.
• You are using a spare tire.
• The TMPS sensor’s battery ran out.

If you are experiencing any of the cases above, the TPMS tire pressure light will stay on even if you add air to your tires. Check the size of the tires. Make sure they all have a TPMS sensor installed.

If the tires are inflated and have a sensor, the most likely cause is a defective TPMS sensor (a common problem) or a malfunction with the TPMS system, which is not a very common problem.

TPMS light flashing

If the TPMS light is flashing or won’t go off, it could be due to a drained TPMS sensor battery or a TPMS system problem.

You can use a TPMS diagnostic scanner to troubleshoot the Mazda TPMS system and retrieve the error codes. This will allow you to troubleshoot the TPMS light yourself.

The YOUCANIC Full System Scanner can read and clear codes on any vehicle’s Tire Pressure Management System, including Mazda. It can also diagnose all control modules of any vehicle.
