Where is the TPMS reset button on a Honda Ridgeline?
In most Honda Ridgeline models, you use a small TPMS reset button, and its location depends on the generation. If your Ridgeline doesn’t have a dedicated reset switch, the system is reset by inflating all tires to the recommended pressure and driving so the monitors recalibrate.
Where to look for the TPMS reset button
The reset switch isn’t in the same place on every Ridgeline year. Here are the common spots you should check first.
- Lower left dash panel near the steering column — look for a button labeled "TPMS" or with a tire icon.
- Inside the glove box on certain trims — some generations place the reset switch here for easy access.
- Instrument panel area near the driver's knee or hood release lever — in older models the button may sit here instead of the glove box.
In many Ridgeline variants, the absence of a physical reset button simply means the TPMS will recalibrate automatically after you bring all tires up to the recommended pressures and drive for several miles.
Reset procedures by configuration
If your Ridgeline has a dedicated TPMS button
Turn the ignition to ON (engine off). Press and hold the TPMS button until the TPMS light in the instrument cluster blinks or resets, then release. After you inflate all tires to the recommended pressures, drive for about 10 minutes at highway speeds to complete the recalibration. The light should go off once the system recognizes correct pressures.
If your Ridgeline does not have a reset button
Use the standard recalibration method: inflate all tires to the recommended pressure (found on the door placard on the driver’s door jamb) and in the tires themselves. Then drive the vehicle at a steady speed of about 40–50 mph (60–80 km/h) for 10–15 minutes to allow the monitors to relearn the new pressures. The TPMS light should turn off once the system has recalibrated.
What to do if the TPMS light stays on
If the light remains on after inflating tires to the correct pressures and driving, there may be a faulty sensor, a problem with the sensor wiring, or a leak in one of the tires. Have the system inspected at a Honda dealer or a qualified tire shop. They can read the TPMS codes and check each sensor’s battery life and location.
Summary
The exact location of the TPMS reset button on a Honda Ridgeline varies by model year, commonly found on the lower left dash near the steering column or inside the glove box. If your model lacks a dedicated reset button, you can recalibrate by inflating all tires to the recommended pressures and driving so the system relearns the new settings. When in doubt, consult the owner’s manual or a dealer for model-specific instructions.
