Where is the Tire Pressure Sensor Monitoring button?
I need to reset it and I. CAN. NOT. FIND. THE. DAMN. THING.
It is not on the left side of the console as it is on later models.
TIA

Response by poster: I have driven it for a little while--we just got new tires. It flashes for a minute and then stays on.

The manual is here, first Google hit for "mazda cx9 2010 manual".

I don't drive that car but I couldn't find mine for ages (a Peugeot) and my partner located it in the glove compartment, on the off chance yours is there too.

Lots of information here
Blinking means there is a system malfunction or a spare tire is in use. In your case "a spare tire is in use" could mean that your tire installers didn't put the transmitter in one or more tires, or dropped and stepped on one, or you (or they) simply need to do the "without scan tool" registration process shown on this page.

(The transmitting modules in the tires sound fragile, and they are battery operated, so you could have any number of problems you may need someone with the proper scan tool to troubleshoot.)

I have a Mazda 5. I don't think there is a button in my car. Note: My car is about 6 years old, and all the tire sensors failed, one by one, over a period of about 6 months. They are beastly expensive to replace, too. My barber suggested getting third party replacement parts, but he's handy enough to do that himself and I am not.
