How to Check Tire Pressure Monitoring on the 10th Generation Accord?
2 Answers
The 10th generation Accord's tire pressure monitoring system cannot display the actual tire pressure. Because the system alerts the driver by calculating differences in wheel speed, the central control screen does not show specific tire pressure values but directly displays the tire pressure monitoring symbol. Here is an introduction to the 10th generation Accord: 1. The 10th generation Accord is a mid-size car under Honda, with dimensions of 4893mm in length, 1862mm in width, and 1449mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2830mm. 2. It is equipped with three types of engines: a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine, a low-power version 1.5L turbocharged engine, and a high-power version 1.5L turbocharged engine. 3. The model with the 2.0L naturally aspirated engine is the hybrid version. 4. The low-power version 1.5L turbocharged engine delivers 177 horsepower and a maximum torque of 230 Nm. This engine reaches its maximum power at 6000 rpm and its maximum torque between 1500 to 3000 rpm. It features VTEC technology and direct fuel injection, with an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. 5. The high-power version 1.5L turbocharged engine delivers 194 horsepower and a maximum torque of 260 Nm. This engine reaches its maximum power at 5500 rpm and its maximum torque between 1600 to 5000 rpm. It also features VTEC technology and direct fuel injection, with an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. 6. Both engines are paired with a CVT transmission.
When I first started driving the 10th-generation Accord, it took me some time to get familiar with the tire pressure monitoring operation. Now let me share the process: After starting the vehicle, directly press the control button on the right side of the steering wheel, such as the 'INFO' key, to enter the menu interface. Use the scroll wheel to navigate up and down to find the tire pressure display option and click into it. The dashboard will then list the real-time pressure values for each tire. The standard usually shows about 32 psi for the front tires and around 30 psi for the rear tires, with the system using color codes—green for normal and red for abnormal. If the data doesn’t update or there’s a warning, it might indicate a sensor failure, and it’s advisable to visit a 4S shop for inspection. Developing this habit ensures optimal tire pressure, which enhances handling, reduces the risk of skidding, and is crucial for daily driving—especially in rainy conditions where low tire pressure can affect braking distance and increase fuel consumption. Regular tire maintenance also extends their lifespan, saving significant repair costs. The entire process takes just a minute and is both convenient and safe.
