How a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) is Set ('07 Model)

When the system detects a problem, the TPMS control unit sets a code, but shifts to fail-safe mode, and will not alert the driver to low tire pressures.
If the TPMS control unit loses power, or fails, the TPMS indicator will come on, but no DTC will be 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), they 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.
