How to supress dash messages '12 Tl

12 TL tech, Is there any way to suppress the dash messages for TPMS sensor? It keeps beeping every 3 seconds while i'm drivinig and it's annoying. I've verified that all the PSI are the same on all wheels. I tried holding "Map/Guide", "Menu" and "Cancel" for 5 seconds from the gen 3 cars but it doesn't work. The 'delete message' option in the navi screen is grayed out. I never completed the activation with the Acura servers. I wonder if that has anything to do with the option being grayed out? Have not had a chance to take it to the dealer and was hoping to resolve this on my own. Any help is appreciated.

I've tried that and it's keeps beeping and displaying the TPMS error (right front tire) The tire was even moved from one side to another (front) and it still happens. Do you have delete message option grayed out as well for the diagnostic and regular messages? Do you know if there is a correlation between the message on the Navi screen and the dash message? TIA

Sounds like a problem, why not get the TPMS issue fixed.

The message is 6 days old and still keeps alerting, even after moving the TPMS sensor to another tire. So my issue is trying to delete the message, or at least acknowledge it. I'm wondering if there is an issue with my navi options for deleting messages, or if there is some secret maintenance screen to manually delete it as the gen3.

You may have a malfunctioning TPMS receiver at the front right location.

Your '12 car is under warranty. Have the dealership take a look at the problem.

This^ OP, you need to take your car to the dealer and get the TPMS unit Removed & Replaced.

Agreed! IMO, the reason the message won't clear is probably because the system lost communication with that TPMS which makes it a service issue.
