Where to Check the Tire Pressure Monitoring in the 10th Generation Accord?

[McChristian]

The 10th generation Accord uses passive tire pressure monitoring, which does not rely on electronic pressure sensors inside the tires but calculates differences in wheel speed to indicate tire pressure. Therefore, the central control screen cannot display specific tire pressure values but will directly show a tire pressure monitoring symbol. There are two types of tire pressure monitoring systems: 1. Direct Tire Pressure Monitoring System: This system uses pressure sensors installed in each tire to directly measure tire pressure. The pressure information is transmitted wirelessly from inside the tire to a central receiver module, which then displays the tire pressure data for each tire. The system automatically alerts when tire pressure is too low or if there is a leak. 2. Indirect Tire Pressure Monitoring System: When the pressure in a tire decreases, the vehicle's weight causes the rolling radius of that wheel to become smaller, resulting in a faster rotation speed compared to other wheels. By comparing the differences in rotation speeds between tires, the system monitors tire pressure. Indirect tire pressure warning systems essentially rely on calculating the rolling radius of tires to monitor pressure.
