Exclamation Tire pressure gauge

Hello all, I am having trouble with tire pressure gauge display.. Model is 08 RDX. It keeps saying that I have a low tire pressure on one of the real wheel, but it's really not. Pressure shows 26 when others are 39. Also, I measured it with tool and it was 38. I don't know what is wrong with it and don't know how to reset the display.. Please help me out guys..

It might be your TPMS that's bad, not the MID.

There are another two possible reasons:

1) the TPMS sender under the wheel well may be bad. This sender is bolted to the underside of the wheel well, and reads the sensor in the wheel, and sends data to the MID

2) the sensor connected to the tire valve stem, may have a weak or bad battery. The battery only lasts for some indeterminate number of hours. This is supposed to be around 10 years, but would depend upon actually how many hours the vehicle has been driven. Lots of city driving at low speeds, and you would not have 100K miles but you might have used the "10-years" of nominal battery life.

I would be interested in what you determine is the actual problem.

No, there is no such function in RDX.
