Please Help. Won't go into "R"
I was coming home from brothers house. My car backed up fine, on the way home I turned off the VSC like I usually do, I was not driving the car hard, I was manually shifting (auto). The forward gears are fine, Never had an issues. When I tryed to put it into "R" it wouldn't going into "R" The light on the dash showed I was in "R" but the "D" was flashing also.. I filled the Auto trans (with Honda fluid) Still the same. I disconnected the (-) terminal on the Batt for 5 min. Same thing, I checked some fuses, same thing. IU have the Master Manual (4" thick) Looked all over in it. I then noticed that the "VSC" Button was Off , yet I didn't turn it off when I was re-starting the car. The VSC Button Indicator (the little triangle) wont turn off. It now stays On, which is "VSC off. I have no idea. This car has given "0" problems. It has always been maintained with All Honda Fluids + Mobile. ?????
I think its electrical ????? At least "I HOPE"
Please Help 
P.S. A man wants to look at it sunday
I was at my brothers house in his heated garage cleaning it up and taking the sub, amp, cap out.

JD-the flashing D indicates a code was thrown in the pcm. You'll have to take it to a dealer to get it read, I dont believe you can pull it with an obd 2 scanner. Also when you said you filled the trans, was it low on fluid or did you just do a drain and fill?

It was about 1 pint low. I didn't drain and fill.

An answer.
The CPU was shorted and needs replacing.
$191 to figure out what was wrong
$690 for new CPU.
And they gave me a brand new RDX AWD NAV TECH
No Charge. And its snowing out. WOW. A blast to drive.
Transmission is fine
Thankyou for the help.
GOD BLESS ALL
