There isn't a dedicated TPMS reset button on most 2019 Honda Civics. The system is reset through the vehicle’s information display or automatically when tire pressures are set correctly and the car is driven.
What TPMS does and how calibration works on the 2019 Civic
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) alerts you when a tire is under- or over-inflated. On the 2019 Civic, there is no separate button labeled “reset.” Calibration can be done through the driver information interface, or the system may recalibrate automatically after you adjust pressures and drive. If you rotate tires or replace sensors, a manual calibration may be needed to synchronize the system with the current tire pressures.
Manual calibration through the instrument cluster
If your TPMS light stays on after inflating tires to the recommended pressures, you can initiate a calibration from the vehicle’s settings. The steps below describe the typical path for 2019 Civics; exact wording may vary by trim and software.
- Turn the ignition to ON with the engine OFF (or in the ACC position, depending on your model).
- Use the steering wheel controls to access the Driver Information Interface (DII) or the Vehicle Settings menu.
- Select Vehicle Settings, then TPMS Calibration, then Calibrate.
- Follow on-screen prompts to initiate calibration. The system will confirm when calibration starts and completes.
- Drive normally at speeds above 30–40 mph (50–60 km/h) for about 10–20 minutes with the tires at the correct pressures to finalize calibration.
Note: If the TPMS light remains after calibration, recheck tire pressures and repeat the steps. If the light persists, there may be a sensor issue or another fault that requires service.
Automatic calibration by driving
In many cases, the Civic recalibrates automatically after you inflate the tires to the proper pressures. Here’s how this works in practice:
- Set all tires to the recommended cold-inflation pressures printed on the placard inside the driver’s door jamb or in the owner’s manual.
- Drive on normal roads; the TPMS will learn the new pressures as you drive above highway speeds.
- If the light turns off after a period of driving, calibration is complete.
If the light does not turn off after driving, check for a puncture, a faulty sensor, or a degraded sensor battery, and consider visiting a Honda service center for inspection and potential replacement.
Summary
For a 2019 Honda Civic, there is no single physical TPMS reset button. Resetting or calibrating the system is done via the instrument cluster’s settings menu (TPMS Calibration) or automatically by driving with the tires inflated to the correct pressures. If issues persist after attempted calibration, professional diagnosis may be necessary.
