VSA Indicator Light

Mine has been coming on intermitantly lately along with the ! on the dash. When I press the VSA Off button to the right of the wheel nothing happens. The only way to reset is to stop the car and turn off the ignition.

Any ideas what this could be?

Do the lights come on soon after starting the car? First thing I would check is the fuse. This happened to me also. The fuse blew and once I changed it, the problem went away. If that doesn't help then you definitely should take it back to the dealer.

It doesn't come on right away, and sometimes it doen't come on at all. I will call the dealer.

What exactly is VSA anyway?

VSA=Vehicle Stability Assist. See page 190 of the owner's manual for more info.

The light(s) coming on is sometimes due to a faulty wheel sensor, so you should definitely get this checked out out by the dealer.

I have been having the same problem. According to the dealer, some of the 2004's have a faulty brake fuse. The dealer couldn't replicate the problem, but said if it happened again to bring it in to have the fuse replaced. Acura is aware of the problem, but no TSB has been issued.

Time to go to the dealer.. I had it on and stayed on, but I was able to turn it off (the indicator) after pressing the VSA button.. Looks like my knee bumped into the switch by accident, and I didn't even know it. Your case, however, looks like a genuine problem..
