i got the VSA on and it will turn on after i got the car warmed up for about 1-5 mins. VSA button doesnt work. Also the Warning light is on the ! with the triangle around it is always on never turns off. someone help me. you think its because i changed the cluster? because i cant remember if it was on when i changed the cluster or not.

No clue as to how letting the car warm up would affect the VSA.

But as to removing the cluster....is it possible you might have ACCIDENTALLY left the plug to the VSA switch disconnected behind the panel? I've done that with my TCS and dimmer on accident before, couldn't figure it out at fist

Not sure about the warming up thing but I do know that when my tranny was going the VSA light came on and wouldn't turn off. Not sure if that could be your problem. The orange light should not be on all of the time though.

i know the warning light would turn on if you turn the VSA off i think my VSA is malfunctioning. i dont know why it wont work. maybe i have to reprogram the car because i cant push the VSA button on my car. so im guessing something is really wrong with the car. ive been driving with it on for over 6 months now. and i hope i didnt damage anything

My VSA light came on once while switching lanes on an uneven lane change and would not turn off. So, I parked, turned off the car, restarted, never came on again. Sounds like you may have a faulty switch or your VSA is on it's way out or having errors. Try resetting the ECU or disconnect the battery for a while to reset the codes. See if it does it again..if so, dealer or Acura tech time I'm afraid.

....and make sure you got your radio code before you disconnect the battery unless you got a aftermarket head unit

look at my thread below "(Partial Christmas tree)" Look familure. Is your check engine light on too? I'll let you know what the dealer has to say about the situation next week. After doing a little research sounds like either a bad EGR valve (waranteed to 80 grand ) or my second tranny begining to take another dump, but shes still running fine?

i dont have any updates. what did the dealer say about your problem? i think it might be my throttle body or i just need to get my car reprogrammed. if i go to the dealer i would probably just ask them to install the oil jet also for free. do you think i should disconnect the cluster, and then remove the battery and then plug everything back? just to see if that resets the cluster?

You dont need to disconect the cluster. Just the battery. If the lights come back on then there is a problem that needs to be addrfessed to get the lights to go off
