Where is the TPMS on Honda Accord?

Location of TPMS on Honda Accord
The TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) on a Honda Accord is not located in a specific physical location like a sensor. Instead, it is controlled by the vehicle stability assist (VSA) modulator-control unit, which monitors and compares the rolling radius and rotational characteristics of each wheel and tire while driving to determine if one or more tires are significantly under-inflated.
If the system detects low tire pressure in any of the four tires, the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator will come on, along with a message on the multi-information display. The indicator will continue to stay on until calibration starts. If a problem is detected in the system, the VSA indicator will come on, along with the CHECK SYSTEM message (TPMS) on the multi-information display (MID).
In newer Honda models equipped with the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) with Tire Fill Assist, the system also displays the current tire pressure for each tire and indicates which tire or tires need attention.
To reset the TPMS on a Honda Accord, you may need to follow specific instructions depending on the model and technology of your vehicle. Some models have a dedicated TPMS reset button located to the left of the steering wheel, while others may require accessing the TPMS calibration settings through the vehicle’s touchscreen display [[5]].
It’s important to note that newer Honda models, including the Accord, use an indirect TPMS system that does not measure the actual air pressure inside the tires. Instead, it relies on the ABS wheel-speed sensors to monitor the rotational speed of each wheel and detect any discrepancies.
Please refer to your vehicle’s owner’s manual or contact a Honda service center for specific instructions on resetting the TPMS for your Honda Accord model.

How do I find my Honda TPMS?

If your model is equipped with a dedicated TPMS reset button, you’ll find it to the LEFT of the steering wheel. Press and hold, allowing the warning light to blink twice.

What does the TPMS symbol look like?

The TPMS low tire pressure indicator is a yellow symbol that illuminates on the dashboard instrument panel in the shape of a tire cross-section (that resembles a horseshoe) with an exclamation point. That indicator light in your vehicle has a history.

Can I reset my TPMS myself?

Hold the TPMS reset button until the tire pressure light blinks three times, then release it. Start the car and wait about 20 minutes for the sensor to refresh. You will find the tire pressure monitor reset button under the steering wheel. Refer to your vehicle’s owner’s manual if you can’t find it.

Where is the TPMS monitor located?

TPMS Sensor Location: Where Are TPMS Sensors Located? The tire pressure sensor is typically found within the tire itself, mounted on the wheel assembly.

How can you tell which TPMS sensor is bad?

Measure the air pressure of each tire and record them. Then, compare the data with the one displayed in your car display panel. If the reading in one tire is different from the one displayed, it might mean that there’s a problem with the TPMS sensor in that tire.

Where do I find the TPMS button?

Set the parking brake. Look for a button to the left of the steering column labeled with the TPMS icon if it’s there push and hold it until the TPMS indicator in the instrument panel blinks twice.

Why is my TPMS light on but tires are fine?

The causes can be a malfunction, or the weather changes. Other reasons why your TPMS light may still be blinking is because your tire may be damaged, or you might have gotten a recent tire replacement. Overall, the reasons can be vast, which is why it is best to take your car to a technician for professional diagnosis.

Can I replace TPMS myself?

There are two types of TPMS sensors. One of them uses a software-based system (indirect). The second type uses sensors built into the valve stem caps (direct). The latter is the type you can install by yourself.

What is TPMS on my Honda dashboard?

The tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) in your Honda is designed to alert you when one or more of your tires falls below the recommended tire pressure.

Does my Honda Accord have TPMS?

Starting with model years 2008 and newer, all Honda models have been equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS); prior to then, select models were equipped with the system.
