Choose Calibrate, Initialize, or TPMS Calibration depending on the display wording.

Common questions

Why is the TPMS light still on?

The tires may not be at the correct pressure, the calibration drive may be incomplete, or a sensor may need service.

Do I reset TPMS after rotating tires?

On many Honda models, calibration is useful after rotation or pressure adjustment.

What does a flashing TPMS light mean?

A flashing light can point to a sensor or system fault rather than simple low pressure.
