I got this from a Acura Dealer Technician: With engine ON, put car in Drive and let off the Brake...let the car start moving and turn the car off while it's moving at 5mph. My VTM-4 light went off after doing this 2 times.
thank you, i have VSA VTM4 SHOW UP WHILE DRIVING but it despairs when the ignition is off/on , sometimes the dashboard meters go down also, there are no codes, can you please help
I was driving on the highway. Vtm light came on in the engine shut off and then check the oil under the hood and my dipstick red no oil I had just changed my oil three days ago. Is that why the engine shut off because there’s no oil?
Thanks for info to understand operations. Im thinking low oil and bad spark plugs on customers 330,000 mile 2013 pilot. Extreme poor maintenance causing these lights.
So if I thought all the valve gasket seals replaced, I’ve done the sensors the catalytic converter the differential fluid all the spark plugs. Why won’t the engine light turn off because it’s the same error code over and over and over again and I’ve replaced the same thing.
Great video thanks for sharing. I just bought a 09 pilot ex-L I have two codes p2197 and p1174, on calls for a o2 sensor the other calls for an AF sensor . Are they the same? Also I googled it it show these have four sensors but it doesn’t show a diagram of where they are located. Any help would be appreciated
Hola amigo mi carro me mostro los mismos sensores que el tuyo, podrias decirme porfavor si solucionaste eso y si sabes cuales de los 4 sensores remplasaste ?
If the VTM light remains on - I'm wondering the same thing. Does that mean it is not working. No answers here yet. Maybe someday. Someday is a long time to be stuck . . .
As stated in the video, the VTM-4 light is illuminated when the system is turned off. When VTM-4 is disabled (light on), it runs in front wheel drive only. It doesn't necessarily mean something is wrong with the VTM-4 system or PCM. As stated in the video, general codes that indicate stability issues will also disengage the system (misfires, etc). Chances are you have an engine light or ABS light on. Either way, get the codes scanned, and you'll know why the computer is shutting the system down. The basic scanners like they use at AutoZone don't scan all systems, they only scan for generic codes. So you may need to have a mechanic with a higher end scan-tool, or the dealership diagnose the issue depending on the modules affected.
Great video, clear and to the point!!
Thank you for the video.

Coil packs , cam sensor, crank sensor , valve adjustment, knock sensor, egr valve, pcv valve, ect sensor would all be changed if I bought second hand
Timing belt and component kit as well
For my 2003 Honda Pilot - P0505 idle control valve and throttle body clogged with carbon
Very helpful.
So basically just check it with the computer and then go from there afterwards?
My 2004 Honda Pilot had the VTM-4 come on long before the check engine and it turned out to be a misfire.
so eventually the CEL came on? All my lights are on but no CEL so it's not scanning.
Great information
Super helpful! We just had a repair on our front car right hand wheel 🛞… could this light have something to do with that? 🤨
Thank man ur video
helped me a lot

Appreciate this video very knowledgeable
The comment about the engine shutting off was in a 2006 Honda ridgeline
Toyota tundra 4wd servo causes that same stuff also a vss
This vtm4 like came on and after 5 min of driving shuts down the engine on a 2003 Honda Pilot.
Does your car still run, I have the same exact problem with the same exact car
