How to Reset the TPMS on an INFINITI Vehicle
If the TPMS light on your INFINITI stays illuminated after inflating your tires, you’re not alone. Many drivers search for how to reset the TPMS system, especially after weather changes, tire rotation, or routine maintenance.
This guide explains how to reset TPMS on all INFINITI models, what to do if the light won’t turn off, and when the issue may indicate a faulty sensor.
What Is TPMS on an INFINITI?
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) continuously monitors the air pressure in each tire. When pressure drops below safe levels, a warning light appears on the dashboard.
Driving with low tire pressure can reduce fuel efficiency, cause uneven tire wear, and increase the risk of a blowout. That’s why INFINITI vehicles are designed to alert you early — but the system must be properly calibrated to work correctly.
Do INFINITI Vehicles Have a TPMS Reset Button?
Most INFINITI vehicles do not have a physical TPMS reset button. Instead, the system is designed to reset automatically once the tires are inflated correctly and the vehicle is driven for a short period.
Some older or select models may allow recalibration through the infotainment or driver settings menu, but manual reset buttons are uncommon on newer INFINITI vehicles.
How to Reset TPMS on INFINITI (Step-by-Step)
- Check Tire Pressure
Inflate all four tires to the PSI listed on the driver-side door jamb sticker. Do not use the PSI printed on the tire itself. - Start the Vehicle
Turn the engine on and ensure the vehicle is in Park. - Drive the Vehicle
Drive at speeds above 25 mph for 10–15 minutes. This allows the TPMS sensors to recalibrate. - Confirm the Reset
The TPMS light should turn off once the system recognizes correct tire pressure.
INFINITI TPMS Reset by Model
INFINITI Q50 & Q60
These models typically reset automatically after proper inflation and highway driving. If the warning persists, a sensor relearn may be required.
INFINITI QX50 & QX60
Cold weather commonly triggers TPMS warnings on these SUVs. Drive for at least 15 minutes after inflation to complete recalibration.
INFINITI QX80
Due to its size and tire volume, the QX80 may require slightly longer driving time for the TPMS system to reset fully.
Why the TPMS Light Won’t Turn Off
- One or more tires are still underinflated
- A TPMS sensor battery is failing
- Recent tire rotation without relearn
- Damaged or replaced TPMS sensor
TPMS sensors typically last 5–10 years. If the light flashes before staying solid, it often indicates a sensor malfunction rather than low tire pressure.
Do You Need to Reset TPMS After Tire Rotation?
Yes. Tire rotation can confuse sensor location data. While some INFINITI models relearn automatically, others may require a dealership or professional scan tool to properly reassign sensor positions.
When to Visit an INFINITI Service Center
If the TPMS light remains on after inflation and driving, a certified technician can diagnose sensor issues, relearn positions, or replace faulty components.
