If the tyre-pressure warning has come on in your Abarth Grande Punto / Punto Evo (2007–2014) after you’ve adjusted the pressures or changed a wheel, you reset it simply by setting the pressures and driving. Here’s how.
When to Reset
- After checking or adjusting the tyre pressures.
- After changing one or more wheels or tyres.
Resetting the System
- Park level and set all four tyres to the correct cold pressures.
- Drive the vehicle for about 5 minutes at over 20 km/h (12 mph).
- The new pressures are stored and the warning clears.
Note: if a pressure sensor has been renewed, the system needs calibrating with a diagnostic tool — a normal reset is just the drive above.
If the Warning Stays On
- Recheck every tyre — one below spec keeps the warning on.
- Complete the learn drive — short trips may not be enough.
- After a sensor change, the system needs a tool to calibrate.
- Still showing with correct pressures? A sensor may have a flat battery — look up the code on autodtcs.com.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I reset the tyre pressure light on an Abarth Punto?
Set all four pressures correctly, then drive about 5 minutes above 20 km/h to store them.
Why won’t the warning clear?
Usually a tyre still below spec, or the learn drive wasn’t long enough.
Do I need a tool?
No for a normal reset; a tool is only needed if a pressure sensor is replaced.
Does adjusting one tyre need a full reset?
Set all four correctly first, then do the short drive so the baseline is right.
If the warning came on with other lights, decode the code on autodtcs.com.
