    Ok so all three of the lights ABS VSA and Brake light came on three days ago come off and comes back on. I just bought a new ABS module for 150 and just had my boy install it for 100$. I bled the brakes lines as well and put new brake fluid. All seems to be fine now

I'm not paying $2750! Planning on keeping the car at least another 4 years so I may go the new route not sure yet.. talk to my buddy the mechanic this weekend find out!! Lol

    I have the same issue on my 2012 accord. Shop quoted me 2k for the repair and I said nope on that one. How difficult was it to replace the VSA Modulator? I'm a novice when it comes to working on cars but from your video it doesn't look super labor intensive.

    • @EstebanLopez-pt3ug

      @@EstebanLopez-pt3ug yeah but you didn't need to replace the whole assembly as just replacing the control module itself would've sufficed. You could've saved yourself the hassle of bleeding the brakes. It's just four bolts to separate the control module from the solenoid valve block.

      You only need to get the ECU flashed if the replacement ABS module is physically compatible but from a Honda of a different trim and/or lineup (for exampled from civic LX to EX or from accord to civic). If the module is from an identical lineup and trim then there’s no need to Program anything.
