    Thanks bud. Having this same issue. I push the button and the light does not go off. I am gonna pull the switch tomorrow and test. I just got a 2004 Tl 3.2 6 speed and a lot of your videos have been very helpful. Thank you.

    How do you determine which pins to test? My 2006 Acura VSA switch is different. Rather than 1 row of 5 pins, mine has 2 rows of pins (9 pins total).

    I uses to have that problem and i resolved real simple. With a needle i suck all the break fluid from the bottle container, clean real good the dirt and the oil level indicator. Put new fluid back and that resolved my 2 problems. The triangle and the break light like if you had the emergency break on. Hopefully this can help you guys.

      Vehicle Stability Assist. It helps the car to stay in a straight line in slippery conditions, or during a quick change of direction maneuver, like trying to evade a sudden obstacle in front of you. It applies the rear wheels breaks, independently, to help the car turn more easily. It uses some of the same sensors that the ABS system uses, but additionally it uses other sensors that measure the posture of the vehicle relative to its movement. Almost all cars have them now, because it is good at helping to keep the control of the vehicle at higher speeds, thus avoiding a lot of single vehicle accidents, but it really is only some additional lines of code in the ABS system, so it is not very expensive to make.
