Wheel Lift Equipment
This is an acceptable way of towing the
vehicle.
Sling-type Equipment
This method of towing
the vehicle is unacceptable.
Manual Transmission
Automatic Transmission
1-13
The tow truck uses two
pivoting arms that go under the tires (front or rear) and
lift them off the ground. The other two wheels remain
on the ground.
The tow truck uses metal
cables with hooks on the ends. These hooks go around
parts of the frame or the suspension, and the cables lift
that end of the vehicle off the ground. The vehicle’s
suspension and body can be seriously damaged if this
method of towing is attempted.
If the vehicle cannot be transported by a flat-bed, it
should be towed with the front wheels off the ground. If
the vehicle is damaged, and must be towed with the
front wheels on the ground, or with all four wheels on
the ground, do this:
Release the parking brake.
Shift the transmission to neutral.
Leave the ignition switch in ACCESSORY (I) so the steering wheel does not lock.
Make sure all accessories are turned off to minimize current battery draw.
Release the parking brake.
Start the engine.
Shift to D, then to N.
Turn off the engine.
Leave the ignition switch in ACCESSORY (I) so the steering wheel does not lock.
Make sure all accessories are turned off to minimize current battery draw.
It is best to tow the vehicle no farther than 80 km
(50 miles), and keep the speed below 55 km/h (35 mph). Improper towing preparation will damage the
transmission. Follow the above procedure exactly. If
you cannot shift the transmission or start the engine
(automatic transmission), the vehicle must be
transported on a flat-bed.
Trying to lift or tow the vehicle by the bumpers will cause serious damage. The bumpers are not
designed to support the vehicle’s weight.

Wheel Alignment
The suspension can be adjusted for front camber, front
toe, and rear toe. However, each of these adjustments
are related to each other. For example, when you adjust
camber, the toe will change. Therefore, you must adjust
the front wheel alignment whenever you adjust camber
or toe.
For proper inspection and adjustment of the wheel
alignment, do these checks: 1. Release the parking brake to avoid an incorrect measurement.
2. Make sure the suspension is not modified.
3. Make sure the fuel tank is full, and that the spare tire, the jack, and the tools are in place on the
vehicle.
4. Check the tire size and tire pressure.
5. Check the runout of the wheels and tires (see page 18-9). 6. Check the suspension ball joints (Hold a tire with
your hands, and move it up and down and right and
left to check for movement).
7. Before doing alignment inspections, be sure to remove all extra weight from the vehicle, and no
one should be inside the vehicle (driver or
passengers).
8. Bounce the vehicle up and down several times to stabilize the suspension.
9. Check that the steering column is set at the center tilt and telescopic position.
Use commercially available computerized four wheel
alignment equipment to measure wheel alignment
(caster, camber, toe, and turning angle). Follow the
equipment manufacturer’s instructions. 1. Check the caster angle.
If the measurement is within specifications,measure the camber angle.
If the measurement is not within specifications, check for bent or damaged suspension
components.

Problems That Are Not System Faults
How a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) is Set How to Troubleshoot DTCs
18-50TPMS
General Troubleshooting Information (cont’d)
Tire Sealant
Fluid sealant used to repair a punctured tire can
damage the tire pressure sensor mounted on each
wheel. It can prevent the system from detecting the
correct tire pressure, which sets a DTC 11, 13, 15, or
17 even t hough the system is normal.
Cold Weather When the weather is extremely cold, about 40 °C
( 40 °F) or colder, the output of the lithium battery in
each tire pressure sensor may drop far enough that
the control unit sets a DTC for low battery voltage (31,
33, 35, or 37) even t hough the system is normal.
Non-TPMS Wheels (Including Spare Tire) Vehicles equipped with TPMS must use wheels made
for the system. Every TPMS wheel has an exclusive
mark; do not use any other type of wheel.
When a flat tire is replaced with the spare tire, the
TPMS indicator comes on (DTC 32, 34, 36, or 38)
because the system is no longer receiving the signal
from the flat tire’s transmitter.
This is not a problem with the spare tire.
When the system detects a problem, the TPMS control unit sets a code, but shifts to fail-safe mode,
and does not alert the driver to low tire pressures.
If the TPMS control unit loses power, or fails, the TPMS indicator comes on, but no DTCs are set.
The memory can hold all the DTCs that could possibly be set. However, when the same DTC is
detected more than once, the most recent one
overwrites the previous one, so only the latest DTC of
each type is stored.
DTCs are indicated in ascending order, not in the order they occurred.
Set DTCs are stored in the EEPROM (nonvolatile memory), and cannot be cleared by disconnecting the
battery. To clear a DTC, connect the HDS (Honda
Diagnostic System) to the data link connector (DLC),
and follow the screen prompts. DTC troubleshooting procedures assume the cause of
the problem is still present and the TPMS indicator is
still on. Do not use a troubleshooting procedure unless
the system has set the DTC listed for it.
NOTE: For DTCs 11, 13, 15, and 17 (tire low pressure),
the TPMS indicator comes on only if the DTCs are
caused by a system problem rather than low tire
pressure.
1. Ask the client to describe the conditions when the indicator came on, and try to reproduce the same
conditions for troubleshooting. Find out if the client
checked and/or adjusted tire pressures since the
indicator came on.
2. If an indicator does not come on during the test- drive, check for loose terminals, poor contact due
to damaged terminals, etc. Before you start
troubleshooting.
3. After troubleshooting, repair and clear the DTCs, and test-drive the vehicle. Make sure no indicators
come on.
4. Check for DTCs from other control units that are connected via the F-CAN. If there are DTCs that are
related to the F-CAN, the most likely cause was that
the ignition switch was turned to ON (II) with the
TPMS control unit connector disconnected. Clear
the DTCs. Check for PGM-FI and TPMS codes, and
troubleshoot those first.

Once the vehicle speed exceeds 45 km/h (28 mph), the TPMS control unit monitors all four tire pressure sensors and
the system function. If it detects low pressure in a tire, it alerts the driver by turning on the low tire pressure indicator.
If it detects a problem in the system, it turns on the TPMS indicator.
Mounted inside of the dash, the TPMS control unit receives wireless pressure sensor ID signals
every time the vehicle
speeds exceeds 45 km/h (28 mph). It also receives wireless signals from the transmitters for tire pressure and the
sensor condition, and it continuously monitors and controls the system. The TPMS control unit cannot directly
determine the position (location) of a tire pressure sensor(s) on the vehicle since it is a wireless system. TPMS sensor
locations will change during scheduled vehicle maintenance (tire rotation).
NOTE: To determine the actual location of each TPMS wheel sensor on the vehicle, do the tire pressure sensor
location procedure (see page 18-53). Once the tire pressure sensor locations are identified, write the sensor ID on the
side wall of the tire with a tire crayon to eliminate confusion.
Two indicators are in the gauge control module (tach): The low tire pressure indicator comes on when any tire
pressure is low, and the TPMS indicator that comes on only if there’s a problem with the system.
The low tire pressure indicator alerts the driver that a tire(s) pressure is low, but does not specify the tire(s) location.

Each sensor is an integrated unit made up of the tire valve stem, a tire pressure sensor, and a transmitter. The unit is
attached to the inside of the wheel, around the valve stem. The sensor transmits the internal tire information to the
control unit once every 60 seconds when the vehicle speed exceeds 45 km/h (28 mph). When the TPMS control unit
receives a tire pressure signal that is less than 175 kPa (1.8 kgf/cm , 25 psi) with 16 inch wheels, or 183 kPa (1.9 kgf/cm ,
27 psi) with 17 inch wheels, the TPMS control unit then turns on the low tire pressure indicator. When that tire’s
pressure is increased to more than 200 kPa (2.0 kgf/cm , 29 psi) with 16 inch wheels, or 210 kPa (2.1 kgf/cm , 30 psi)
with 17 inch wheels, and the vehicle is driven above 45 km/h (28 mph) the transmitter sends the tire pressure signal to
the control unit, and then the control unit turns the indicator off.
NOTE: Do not mix the TPMS tire pressure sensors or wheels with other TPMS types. Be sure to use the correct type
sensors and wheels for this system.
Sensor are active:
When the wheel rotates over 45 km/h (28 mph), the sensor detects the momentum, switches the sensor to the normal function mode.
The LF (low frequency) signal of the TPMS tool makes the sensor active even t hough the vehicle is stopped. The tire
pressure sensor goes into sleep mode when the acceleration sensor detects the wheel is stationary for 5 minutes or
more continuously.
The TPMS will not work unless TPMS type wheels are installed on the vehicle. There are three different types of
wheels used. The original equipment wheels have a ‘‘TPMS’’ mark (A) on them and are counterweighted (B) the
opposite of the tire pressure sensor (C), and counterbalance the weight of the sensor.
