Frequently asked questions
2010 Honda Accord Crosstour EX shown

The tire pressure light on the Honda Accord Crosstour means one or more monitored tires is at least 25 percent below the pressure shown on the driver’s door-jamb placard, or that the tire-pressure monitoring system has a fault. The warning appears as a horseshoe-shaped tire outline with an exclamation point inside. A steadily lit light calls for tire pressure to be set at the next stop, while a light that flashes for about a minute at startup and then stays on indicates a system issue requiring diagnosis. Courtesy Palm Harbor Honda in Palm Harbor, FL, checks the tires, sensors, valve stems, and monitoring system so the cause can be identified accurately.

What the tire pressure light means on a Honda Accord Crosstour

The tire pressure warning is a horseshoe-shaped tire outline with an exclamation point inside. When it stays steadily illuminated, one or more monitored tires is at least 25 percent below the placard pressure. This can happen after a cold night because tire pressure drops about one psi for every ten degrees, and an underinflated tire wears faster and runs hotter. The pressure should be set at the next stop. If the light flashes for about a minute when the vehicle starts and then remains lit, the tire-pressure monitoring system itself has a fault, usually involving a sensor whose battery has run down. A diagnosis separates a tire needing air or repair from a sensor needing replacement.

What the diagnosis covers at Courtesy Palm Harbor Honda

The tire pressure light service includes a pressure check of every monitored tire against the placard on the driver’s door jamb. Each tire-pressure sensor’s signal and battery status are also scanned. The inspection includes looking for punctures and leaking valve stems, followed by a system relearn after sensor or tire work. This process helps distinguish low pressure, a tire leak, and a monitoring-system fault without relying only on how the tires appear. Drivers noticing the warning after a temperature drop, despite tires looking full, or after a flashing startup sequence can schedule service at Courtesy Palm Harbor Honda.
