2008-2012 Honda Accord Pre-Programmed Smart TPMS Tire Pressure Sensors Kit

This Smart Sensor kit replaces the tire pressure sensors on a 2008-2012 Honda Accord, sedan or coupe. The sensors are pre-programmed for the Accord's 315 MHz Honda system, so there is no sensor programming to do before they go in the wheels.

By now the original sensors in an eighth generation Accord are well past the age where their sealed batteries give out, which is why so many of these cars show a TPMS warning even with the tires set correctly. Once a sensor's battery is gone, the whole sensor has to be replaced. These Smart One sensors install in the factory location inside the wheel and report to the Accord's TPMS warning system the same way the originals did.

The sensors are built to SAE J1205 and J1206 standards for heat, cold and corrosion resistance. The tire has to be dismounted to install them, so most owners have them put in during a tire replacement.

Relearn on the 2008-2012 Accord

The Accord does not learn new sensors by driving. The new sensor IDs have to be registered to the car with a scan tool, either Honda's HDS or an aftermarket TPMS tool with OBD capability, after each sensor is triggered with a TPMS tool. Most tire shops that service Hondas do this as part of the install.

Common questions

Will these fit my 2010 Accord coupe? Yes. The kit covers 2008 through 2012 Accord sedans and coupes.

Can I just reset the light after installing them? No. On this generation the car has to be told the new sensor IDs with a scan tool. Until that is done, the TPMS light will stay on.

Do I have to replace all four? Not necessarily, but the originals are the same age, so when one battery dies the others usually follow. Replacing the set at once saves paying for the relearn twice.
