The TPMS button on a 2016 Honda Civic sits on the lower-left dash near the hood release lever. You may need to remove a small cover to access it.
Location and appearance
The TPMS control is typically labeled TPMS or shows a tire-press icon. It’s tucked under the left side of the dash, within easy reach of the driver. Some trims hide the switch behind a small plastic panel; you may need to pop it off with a fingernail or a small flat tool to reach the button.
How it looks
The button is usually a small, recessed push button labeled TPMS or SET/TIRE. It may be black or gray and sits near the hood-release lever or behind a removable cover.
Reset procedure
To reset the TPMS after inflating tires or changing tires, follow these steps:
- Inflate all tires to the recommended cold pressures printed on the driver's door jamb or in the owner’s manual.
- With the ignition on and the engine off, press and hold the TPMS/SET button until the indicator light on the dash blinks once or twice, then release.
- Drive straight for about 10 minutes at a steady speed to complete the relearn. The TPMS light should go off when the system finishes relearning.
- If the warning light remains on after a full relearn attempt, recheck tire pressures and consider a sensor diagnostic at a Honda service center.
Note: Some 2016 Civic trims may perform an automatic relearn after you drive with properly inflated tires. If you cannot locate the button or the light won't reset, consult your owner's manual or a dealer for the exact procedure for your trim level.
Summary
In short, the TPMS button on a 2016 Honda Civic is located on the lower-left dash near the hood release lever, often behind a small cover. Use the button to reset after inflating tires, following the steps above or relying on automatic relearn if your trim supports it.
