In 2009, the wheel sensors on the Honda Accord monitor tire pressures, but they can get blocked by debris. To reset the TPMS after checking the tire pressure, you'll need an OBDII scan tool for the 2009 Accord model. Park on a level surface, choose "sensor test" on the scan tool, and follow the instructions for the manufacturer and wheel location. Hold the scanner near each wheel sensor to store the PSI. Repeat for the other three wheels, then follow the tool's instructions to reset the TPMS. This should recalibrate the system. Newer Accord models may have a TPMS button near the steering wheel or information displays to help with the reset process.

    It seems like you missed the point. This is specifically for a 2009 Honda and there is no menu available.

    I have to clear the TPMS light on my 2009 Honda Accord V-6, but I can't find any options in the menu to do so. How can I reset the TPMS light?

    Do the 2009 Honda Accords come with a menu button? I don't see one in my car for sure.

    I recalibrated mine earlier today by decreasing the tire pressure to 10 pounds per square inch and then increasing it to 35 psi with the ignition in the first position. The TPMS indicator turned off when I tested it on the second wheel.

    I'm dealing with the same issue. Can't seem to get a response from anyone. So frustrating! 😡

    To reset the tire pressure sensor on a 2009 Honda Accord, go to the menu and select the switch settings. Then, choose the "initialize" option for TPMS calibration. When prompted, select "yes" and press to leave the menu.

    You require a tool for resetting.

    So I suppose the key is to pay no mind to the TPMS light, but to instead be concerned when the small symbol of a deflated tire appears and to regularly check your tire pressure!

    I haven't attempted this yet, but I came across this information: To reset the light, you must activate the relearn mode in the system. Start by ensuring all tire pressures are uniform and within specified limits. It may be necessary to connect a battery charger on low to prevent the battery from losing power. Turn off all accessories, then turn the key to the "On" position without starting the engine for 20 minutes. Next, drive the vehicle above 16 mph for at least 7 minutes. Once the relearn process is complete, the light should turn off. If the light remains on, it indicates the system requires repair. In some cases, you may need to replace tire pressure sensors, as they can deteriorate after approximately 5 to 6 years.
