Denso 550-0201 Tire Pressure Monitoring System Sensor

Denso TPMS Sensor for Honda Pilot

Denso TPMS Sensor 550-0201 is an OE Manufactured direct tire pressure monitoring sensor built for vehicles that use a clamp-in design and real-time pressure signal transmission. It is engineered for the 2009-2015 Honda Pilot with a steel wheel, 315 MHz system, and OE-style fitment.

For Honda Pilot TPMS service, this sensor supports the vehicle’s factory monitoring functions while preserving diagnostic trouble codes and system features such as Fill Assist and Auto Locate. The Denso OE Manufactured line is aimed at direct replacement applications where the sensor must work with the vehicle’s original TPMS architecture.

Detailed Description

Denso 550-0201 is a tire pressure monitoring system sensor made for direct replacement in select Honda Pilot applications. It is specified for 2009-2015 Honda Pilot models with steel wheels and a 315 MHz TPMS setup, making it a focused solution for OE-style service work. As part of Denso’s OE Manufactured product line, this sensor is built to align with factory system requirements rather than generic universal fitment.

This part cross-references Honda 42753SZAA12 and 42753SZAA13 for the same application. The Denso 550-0201 is also referenced for Honda Pilot TPMS service where preserving factory diagnostics and system behavior matters.

What It Helps Address

• TPMS warning light caused by a failed sensor
• Loss of tire pressure signal transmission
• Sensor replacement needs after wheel service or tire changes
• Factory TPMS functions not operating correctly after repair
• Diagnostic trouble codes related to the tire pressure monitoring system

Installation Notes and Tips

Fits 2009-2015 Honda Pilot, N/A. Confirm the vehicle uses a steel wheel and 315 MHz TPMS configuration before installation. Because the sensor is vehicle-specific, a relearn procedure may be required after installation, and some vehicles require a trusted repair shop or scan tool to complete that process according to the manufacturer’s method.

Quality Assurance

Denso designs this TPMS sensor for direct use with the vehicle’s original monitoring system and for preserving factory functions during service. The OE Manufactured line is intended for applications where sensor communication, diagnostic retention, and system compatibility are important.
