2015 Honda Civic TPMS warning indicators lighting up dispite correct tire pressure. Anyone with similar problem?

They know the tires are not mismatched but so what if they were ? TPMS is to monitor tire pressure,My recalibration is on page 107 (6step) It does not work. Honda dealer must tiurn off TPMS with their computer but only workls for ~150 miles because of tread wear difference

[image] Franz_Sitar: rotated every 6,000miles but it should not matter, A reliable TPMS should monitor tire pressure not differences in tread wear As you’ve already said, you have an indirect TPMS, which means it looks for differences in rotational speed between the 4 wheels. When one wheel i…

Exactly! I do not have a government mandated Tire Pressure Monitoring System. I have a Tire ROTATIONAL Monitoring System which should technically violate the law. My 4 tires are not of equal tread depth. But so what? It is preposterous to required to buy 4 new tires of the same brand and tire depth …

No sense arguing about anything but the fact you have rotated your tires, and the tpms is erroring out. The next step imhop is to find out why the suspect tire is having an issue, it could be a sensor, alignment, suspension issue or bad tire, don’t take it as a curse but take it as an issue that nee…

[image] Franz_Sitar: based on my experiance it is a inherently flawed Tire PRESSURE Monitoring System No argument there. I’m very happy with the actual TPMS in my Acura, and would not want to step down to the cheap version. Unfortunately, indirect TPMS does qualify as TPMS under the law, so t…

Folks, Mazda uses in an Indirect TPMS system as well. It does NOT require four tires of equal tread. Once the system is reset it should take a baseline reading of rotation on all four wheels to establish the “normal” tire pressure. Should one tire lose air it will rotate at a different speed and …

My 2009 Mexican Sienna has had a tire warning for the year plus I have had it. It may be the pressure sensors in the tire, I don’t know. I know the pressures are correct, so the car is safe to drive. The problem is if a tire goes bad on a trip I will not know until it blows.

If there’s no calibration work-a-round provided by the manufacturer, seems like your only choice is to put a piece of black tape over the warning light until you eventually buy new tires. None of my vehicles has ever had tpms, and I seem to get along ok for the past 50 years without it. I agre…

I smell BS here. You say the tires are all original to the car, same brand, and have been rotated. It would be easy to measure the tread depth on each and see how much difference there is ( I predict almost none). I prefer indirect TPMS having owned both types (still do) and cannot see how this Ho…

It actually is a safety issue to have a continuous false low pressure warning indicator which one tends to ignore.There are no sensors with a i TPMS, I do not have an alignment issue or a bad tire. All tire pass PA inspection. IHonda needs to switch back to a direct TPMS which monitors tire PRESSURE and not extraneous issues,
