09 TSX VSA light ON after I replaced VSA module? Please help
Hello all . I hand a low brake paddle pressure issue which had me press the brakes deep till you actually get braking power in the vehicle , and after draining my brake lines and did bunch of other stuff which didn’t fix the issue , I read online to replace Vsa module . I sell Acura parts and had one sitting from 2011 Tsx , after replacing that brakes work 100% perfect finally but now the dash shows Vsa light and also check VSA system . Can anyone tell me what to do to a a normal scanner with abs feature can reset the lights.
There is no malfunction in the car no check engine lights brakes are fully functional traction control is working as suppose to .
Thank you in advance

I own a 2009 tsx. I had the same problem. Brake pedal to the floor with little brake power. I replaced the master cylinder thinking it would fix it and unfortunately it didnt. I replaced the VSA module and NO MORE SPONGY PEDAL!downside you ask...CHECK VSA came on with the little triangle. My friend owns a Snap-on solus scanner, that thing is a beast! We tried relearning the vsa and doing multiple test with no success. We opened the old (original one from the car)Vsa module (1 t25 screw on each corner) the inside was wet and full of brake fluid. Vsa module has o-rings on each hole and one was damaged allowing air to go into the module (giving you the spongy pedal). We removed the electronics part of the one I bought and it was bone dry. I put the electronic part of the original one into the (used) new one and.....NO MORE CHECK VSA CODE!!!threw the scanner on and test drove the car checking all the info from the VSA with the scanner and no fault code came up at all....

I'm thinking the electronuc part of the VSA is programmed for your car and probably the dealer can reprogram a new one to your car. I could be wrong, but this fix my issue....no bleeding the brakes was required and no relearning...just swapped the two electronic parts and that was it...to sum it up...I used the new metal part with the brake lines and the original electronic piece to fix my
This is the electronic part of the new (used) part that gave the VSA code
issue.
