TPMS Calibration (With TPMS Switch): Procedure
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 7 other vehicles, including the 2022 Honda HR-V, 2021 Honda HR-V, 2020 Honda HR-V, 2019 Honda HR-V, and 2018 Honda HR-V. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
- Make sure the tire pressure is properly adjusted to the specified tire pressure listed on the doorjamb label before doing the TPMS calibration.
- The calibration begins when the TPMS switch is pressed. The calibration is completed after driving in an ideal driving condition (28 to 65 mph (45 to 105 km/h), driving steadily without much acceleration or deceleration) for about 18 minutes. Full functionality of the system cannot be performed properly if the calibration is not completed.
- Do the TPMS calibration after doing the following items.
-
- Adjust the tire pressure.
- Rotating the tires.
- Replacing the tire(s).
- Update the VSA modulator-control unit.
- Replace the VSA modulator-control unit.
- Calibration check method.
Check if calibration is completed by doing the following items.
-
- Stop the vehicle and shift into neutral (M/T) or P or N (CVT).
- Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.
- Turn the vehicle to the ON mode and wait to see the low pressure indicator come on for 2 seconds and then off.
- Do not drive the vehicle and wait for 45 seconds as is.
- If the calibration is completed, the indicator does not come on. If the calibration is not yet completed, then the indicator comes on for 2 seconds and then goes off.
The calibration check process gets interrupted if the vehicle moves. Do the troubleshooting if the indicator does not go off after 2 seconds, keeps blinking or stays on when the vehicle is in the ON mode.
- TPMS - Calibrate
1. Make sure the tires are inflated to the specified tire pressure listed on the doorjamb label. 2. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.
NOTE: Vehicle must be stopped with the transmission in neutral (M/T) or P or N (CVT).
3. Press the TPMS switch (A) for 3 seconds.
4. When the calibration successfully begins, the indicator (B) blinks twice.
NOTE: If the indicator does not blink, check the TPMS switch .
