TPMS Reset Procedures: Notes

NOTE: When a tire pressure sensor is replaced or tires are rotated, the sensor ID must be memorized by the TPMS control unit. See Memorizing Sensor ID (Automatically) . If the tire pressure monitor control unit has also been replaced, the Honda Diagnostic System (HDS) or a OBD-II compatible scan tool must be used to program information into new TPMS control unit. See Memorizing Sensor ID (Using HDS) .

NOTE: If a flat tire is replaced with the spare tire, and the flat tire is stored in the cargo area, the low pressure indicator will stay on but the appropriate tire indicator will go off. This prevents the customer from thinking there is a problem with the spare tire. When the flat tire is taken out of the vehicle for repair, the TPMS indicator will come on because the system is no longer receiving the signal from the tire's transmitter.

NOTE: Misalignment of the control unit and initiators could interfere with sending and receiving signals. Ensure brackets on TPMS control unit and front initiators are not bent.

NOTE: On models equipped with PAX tire systems, if a tire is repaired or replaced, the warning indicator (and the mileage counter that supports it) must be reset, no matter how far the vehicle was driven in the run flat mode. See PAX SYSTEM RESET .

When the tire pressure warning light illuminates and warning message appears, immediately check air pressure of all tires and adjust to the specified pressure. Ensure warning indicators go out.
