New CRV tire pressure reset method: Press the arrow button at the lower right corner of the steering wheel until the personalized settings appear on the central garden screen; Press SEL/RESET, and the option for Tire Pressure Monitoring System Calibration will appear; Press SEL/RESET again, and the option for Setting/Tire Pressure Monitoring System Calibration will appear. Press the arrow button at the lower right corner of the steering wheel, and Calibration 2/2 will appear. Press SEL/RESET to start calibration, and the reset will be completed in a few seconds. There are generally three reasons for abnormal tire pressure: Abnormal tire pressure: The system usually alerts when the pressure is below 1.8 bar or above 3.0 bar. In this case, tire inspection and pressure adjustment are required. Tire pressure monitoring not reset: After inflating the tires, if the tire pressure is not reset in time, the tire pressure monitoring system will still record the previous data, causing the tire pressure monitoring light to illuminate. Simply perform a tire pressure reset to resolve this. Damaged tire pressure sensor: The tire pressure sensor, which monitors tire pressure, is directly installed inside the tire and connected to the tire inflation valve. If the sensor is damaged during driving due to impact, the tire pressure warning light will also illuminate. For sensor damage issues, only a complete replacement with a new part is possible.
I've driven a CRV for many years and have dealt with the new model's tire pressure system several times. The light usually comes on due to pressure fluctuations or needing a reset after tire changes. Here's what I do: First, turn off the engine but keep the key in the ON position without starting it. Then use the scroll wheel button on the left side of the steering wheel to switch to the settings menu, find the tire pressure monitoring calibration option in the vehicle settings submenu, and click confirm to initiate. After resetting, it's recommended to drive a few kilometers on flat roads to let the system learn the new state. Once I forgot to check the front tire pressure - the light went off then came back on, so I quickly topped up the air and reset it again to fix the issue. Remember to maintain pressure at the manual's recommended values - not too high or low. If the light stays on after multiple resets, it might be a sensor issue or a leak, in which case you should visit a professional shop immediately for inspection - don't compromise safety. Regular tire pressure checks can prevent such troubles.
