How to reset the tire pressure light on the 2021 Odyssey?

Methods to reset the tire pressure light on the 2021 Odyssey: First, turn on the ignition switch, press and hold the tire pressure monitoring reset button until you hear a "beep" sound, then release. The tire pressure monitoring system will store the current normal tire pressure data, automatically clear the previous data, and finally, the warning light on the dashboard will turn off, completing the tire pressure reset. Precautions for inflating tires: Always use a pressure gauge to check the tire pressure to avoid overinflation, which can cause the tire to burst. After stopping the vehicle, wait for the tires to cool down before inflating, as driving increases tire temperature, affecting the pressure. Check the valve stem. If the valve stem and valve core are not properly aligned, have protrusions, depressions, or other defects, it may hinder inflation and pressure measurement. Ensure cleanliness during inflation. The air being pumped in should not contain moisture or oil to prevent deterioration of the inner tube rubber. Do not exceed the standard pressure significantly and then release air, nor inflate excessively due to prolonged inability to inflate while traveling. Exceeding the standard pressure too much can overstretch the cords, reducing their strength and affecting the tire's lifespan.
I remember my 2021 Odyssey's tire pressure warning light came on a few times, which is a pretty common issue. It's best to first check the air pressure in all tires—the recommended value is around 32 PSI, usually marked on the label inside the driver's door frame. If the tire pressure is low, inflate them and then reset the system: sit in the car, turn the key to ON (but don't start the engine), then locate a small button labeled 'SET' on the left side of the steering wheel, hold it for about five seconds, and watch the tire pressure light on the dashboard blink a few times before turning off. If the light remains on, the sensor might be dirty or the battery could be dead, and you’ll need to visit a specialized repair shop. Make it a habit to visually inspect your tires before driving to avoid high-speed blowouts—safety first. Especially before long trips, checking the tire pressure can extend tire life, save fuel, and give you peace of mind.
