What do you mean by a TPMS button? Are you trying to activate new sensors, or update after a tire rotation, or something else? I don't think there is a TPMS button, I think programming new sensors requires a scan tool with TPMS feature and an activation tool.

@SHO Rod The dash was only showing a pressure reading for one tire. I inflated all of the tires properly, three were low, and now I want to remove the tire warning light on the dash that’s located within the speedometer.

You'll most likely need to remedy the sensor/pressure issue before the light will go out. I'm not aware of any button you can press to extinguish the TPMS warning light. Your best bet may be to find someone with a TPMS activation tool to see if the three sensors in question are working and if the batteries are good to determine if this is a sensor issue or a TPMS receiver/system issue. You could also try pulling the fuse for the TPMS system (I think it's the Wireless Ignition Node) for a bit in an attempt to reset it.

chances are the batteries in the sensors are dying, the truck is 5 almost 6 years old. my 17 has no button or menu option for TPMS reset, just a display for the pressure readouts.
