Turn off VSA & Triangle light

I have fixed the problem myself without a Scanner!


Delete ABS errors: make sure emergency brakes are off

1) Make a shortcut between 4th and 9th pin of the OBD plug
2) Press with your foot on the brake pedal and switch on the ignition.
3) Wait for the ABS lamp to turn off and then remove your foot from the brake pedal.
4) Wait for the ABS lamp to turn on and press with your foot on the brake pedal again.
5) ABS lamp should turn off, then remove your foot from the brake pedal.
6) Wait for two flashes of ABS lamp. If it flashes it means that errors are erased. Turn off ignition.

Check the errors, not removing the shortcut - just turn the ignition on, if ABS lamp do not flashes, no errors are in memory.

Now the main part: VSA Neutral position setting (Turn off VSA triangle light)

Do not touch the brake pedal anymore.

1) Make a shortcut of 9th pin of OBD plug to chassis (i have used a bolt on a door hinge )
2) Turn the ignition on, after ABS lamp turns off, shortly press the "VSA off" button
3) After ABS lamp turns on again, shortly press the "VSA off" button.
4) Now shoud be a lot of different blinks and fashes in all lamps ABS, VSA and triangle should turn off. Turn off ignition switch, and disconnect cable from OBD plug & chasis

The problem is solved.

Shamelessly ripped from Bradissiomo's previous post.

You're right, if you care to look in Baradissimo's post, I did give him the credit and thanks for the tips with this problem. I just wanted to share a knowledge with other people. If you can't understand that, sorry for the inconvenience I could have caused you.

Unhappy 2003 VSA light

I'm hoping that someone can help me solve my problem with my truck. I have a 2003 MDX & the VSA light is on & not going off, is there any way that the vsa can be disconnected all together??? I refuse to pay the dealership all that money & I have had it in to some place else for a diagnostic check & they can't pinpoint the problem. Please help me.

You should head over to the MDX forum. They can probably help you better.
