HOw the maintenance minder detects or schedule transmission oil change in a2006 pilot

Transmission fluid change interval is mostly mileage based on your model vehicle. The system automatically moves up maintenance items or delays them so they get done along with engine oil replacement. For example, if tire rotation is normally done at 7,500 miles, but the oil life ends around 6,000 miles, the system will move up the tire rotation. Or, if the oil life appears to be ending around 9,000 miles, the system will delay tire rotation.

With the exception of engine oil life (which is calculated based on engine operating conditions), other maintenance items are principally mileage based for normal driving conditions. Severe driving conditions would also necessitate deviation from the Maintenance Minder scheduled maintenance. There are also maintenance items brake fluid, adjustment of valves if they are noisy, which are independent of the Maintenance Minder regularly scheduled maintenance.
