2012 EX-L TPMS Question

Got this Civic a few months ago from a Honda dealer and this is my first time experiencing an issue with a TPMS system. The low pressure light came on, so I checked the tires. One tire was slightly low and I refilled all to the 32psi spec on the door. This is the part I haven't been able to figure out...

I looked at several videos on how to do a TPMS reset but there doesn't seem to be a menu item for it. These are the menu steps I found-
1- Vehicle Information <OK>
2- Maintenance Info <OK>
3- Customize Settings THIS SELECTION DOESN'T EXIST.
4- TPMS Calibration

I also tried 1- Vehicle Information / 2- Customize Settings, but there is no TPMS Calibration selection there either. I scrolled up and down through all the menus.
What am I missing here?
The tires were newly replaced by the dealer if that makes any difference.

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

2012 has pressure sensor inside each wheel. There is no reset menu. See your owners manual.



After airing the tires to correct pressure, simply drive the car above 25 mph and the warning light should extinguish.

Thanks- that fixed it. Couldn't find anything in the owner's manual- that's how I ended up here.
