TPMS Reset Button on Chevy Malibu
The TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) reset button on a Chevy Malibu is not a physical button that you can press. Instead, the reset procedure is done through the vehicle’s instrument panel. Here are the steps to reset the TPMS on a Chevy Malibu:
1. Start by turning on the ignition (engine off).
2. Locate the trip odometer reset stem on the instrument panel.
3. Press and hold the trip odometer reset stem until the message “PRESS (<>) TO RELEARN TIRE POSITIONS” is displayed.
4. Release the trip odometer reset stem.
5. Lowering the driver’s side window may help to complete the process if the relearn fails.
6. Follow the instructions on the Driver Information Center (DIC) to complete the TPMS relearn process. This may involve adjusting the tire pressure in all four tires to the recommended levels indicated on the tire placard.
Please note that these instructions are based on the Chevy Malibu owner’s manual and should apply to the seventh, eighth, and ninth generations of the Chevy Malibu (2008-2021 model years).
It’s important to mention that if you have recently replaced a tire or sensor, it is recommended to perform a TPMS reset to ensure accurate readings. Additionally, if you are unsure about the process or need further assistance, it is always a good idea to consult the owner’s manual or contact a certified Chevy repair center for guidance.
