Dacia shares Renault's direct TPMS on Duster, Sandero and Jogger — inflate to the placard, then reset with a long press of the OK button on the stalk or through the touchscreen.

Why the Dacia tyre pressure light is on

Dacia fits real wheel sensors that report live pressure. The light means an actually low tyre (most common), a sensor battery at the end of its 6–8 year life, or wheels that have been swapped without the sensors being programmed to the car.

Dacia tyre pressure light reset — step by step

  1. Inflate all four tyres cold to the door-pillar placard pressures.
  2. Switch the ignition ON.
  3. On Sandero III, Duster II/III and Jogger with the Media Nav touchscreen: Vehicle → Tyre Pressure → Reset.
  4. On older Sandero II, Duster I and Logan with the cluster display: press the OK button on the end of the wiper/column stalk to scroll to 'Tyre Pressure', then press and hold OK for around 3 seconds.
  5. Drive above 20mph for 10 minutes to finish the relearn.

If the light won't go off

If the warning flashes for about a minute before going steady, that's a system fault — a sensor isn't reporting, so replacing it is the fix, not more air. If it goes steady straight away, you genuinely have a soft tyre; recheck with a proper digital gauge, not the forecourt machine.

What it costs

Reset is free. Sensor replacement £40–£75 per wheel fitted at an independent including programming. Dealer pricing typically £90–£140.

Bob's workshop tip

Duster owners who run off-road or on farm tracks knock sensors about more than they realise. If you drop pressures for grip and put them back up afterwards, always re-run the reset or the car will keep nagging.
