Warning ⚠️ Light and VSA light after rear wheel bearing/hubs replaced
Warning ⚠️ Light and VSA light after rear wheel bearing/hubs replaced
2008 Acura RL
Paid an Acura dealership to replace both rear wheel bearings with provided timken wheel bearings. Afterwards I now have the triangular warning ⚠️ Light and then shortly after the VSA light comes on.
The service manager said today the rear speed sensors are not communicating with the bearings, and that the battery may have low voltage causing this. I brought a new battery and installed it and the warning light and VSA still display.
The service manager it may be the bearings I had installed causing this. Its hard to believe both timken bearings are bad, their trying to sell me OEM bearings from them and want to charge me to reinstall.
I may take it somewhere else for a second opinion first, its very hard to believe both rear bearings and hubs have defective tone rings.. what else could be causing this issue. Thank you.

I got that same warning and it was a failed sensor. That VSA sensor is in the left rear wheel well, and I got the same warning when mine failed. The OEM sensor is very expensive, so I got one off eBay and fixed the problem.
If that's the problem (it's possible they boogered it up in the replacement), there is a long thread here on that....do a search.
