2004 TL VSA, Engine Light on, throws P2649 code

My VSA, exclamation, and check engine light remain lit. I checked the code and it's P2649. I've replaced the VTEC solenoid and the VTEC assembly, but that did not fix the problem. Please help.

Did you clear the code after replacing the assembly?

did the assembly have the solenoid and oil pressure switch?

have you had the oil changed recently?

have you checked the oil level?

what engine size?

V0122 (126-4) Permanent DTC F-CAN MALFUNCTION (ECM) PCM - VSA CONTROL MODULE UNIT) but no Service Engine light

no communication between VSA module and ECM, Check wiring, fuses, or vsa module. If vsa module it may be costly. VSA is the ABS/Trac control. Can you pull codes from vsa are the lights for vsa (ABS) coming on in the dash?

I have a 2004 Acura TL with 75,000 miles on it. Recently I had the dashboard replaced and soon after my abs, vsa lights come on every so often. Lately it is more frequent and I have diffculty getting the...

It sounds like when the dashboard was replaced that one or more of your lighting harnesses weren't completely plugged in.

Since your check engine light came on, you now have an error code to help pin it down. I would suggest you take it to an autoparts store and have them read the error codes in your computer. WRITE THEM DOWN IN THE ORDER THEY COME OFF, so you have them. That should give you a starting point for further troubleshooting.

2006 CRV - VSA light and triangle are lit? What

The vsa and check engine light cam on because their is a fault in the system that needs to be looked at.To be on the safe side i would check the oil and transmission fluid .
Try doing a reset. Disconnect battery for a minute, this will clear the code ( light ). If the light comes back then take it auto zone or dealer to have the code read.
You can have the codes read for free at your local parts store like auto zone.
Have them scan it and let me know what the codes are.

2004 honda accord

It's for the 'vehicle stability assist' system.(aka electronic stability control) This lights up if you have turned the vsa system off. If it flashes, it means the system is on and operating to help control the stability of your car (making adjustments in engine and braking). If it comes on w/ VSA indicator light at the same time, it indicates you have a problem w/ the system. Sorry u didn't get the manual, it's amazing how many people throw them out! countrycurt0
