The 2012 Hyundai Elantra is equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system. The TPMS will display an alert if it detects low tire pressure. If a tire falls five pounds below the recommended pressure, the sensor sends a signal and the TPMS light illuminates. Once the tires are inflated to the factory recommended 32 psi, and the vehicle is driven for a few miles the light should go out. Sometimes the tires need to be over-inflated an additional five psi before the light will go out. If the tire pressure light is flashing, this means there is a problem with the system. A diagnostic scan would need to be performed to determine the cause. Most of the time it's because of a weak battery in one of the TPMS sensors, they typically last for up to 10 years. The scan will tell You which sensor is bad

To reset the tpms on the 2012 hyundai elantra make sure the tire pressure is correct, then turn on the vehicle. Now hit the reset button that is to the right of the steering wheel and wait ten minutes. In some cases you may need to hold the button down till the light flashes. If the sensor is not working correctly then you may have tires with incorrect pressure, and the car can get bad performance.
