ALB and TCS light question.

[andreah]

Hi

My car has been garaged for a few months now during the winter. I took the car for spin as soon as the weather allowed me. As soon as I started the car and start to drive the ALB and TCS light pop up. I have never had any problems with this before and I thought it was strange that they both poped up at the same time. Is there anything I can do to try to fix this. I have checked the fuses and they look fine and I have restarted the ECU but still the light pop up.

Any suggestions what I can do

This happened on my '92 a couple of years ago. In my case a wheel sensor went bad. Both systems use input from the wheel sensors. Check the specific code to determine which wheel.

Ironically mine did the same thing. I need to check my codes to see.

I have checked the failure code from the ECU, and it showes:

Check engine light: 3 long blinks and 6 short blinks

ALB: 4 short blinks

TCS: 4 long blinks and 4 short blinks.

Can anyone tell me what the failure is ?

Forget about the 36 CEL, it is meaningless

You need a Right Rear Wheel Speed Sensor - 57470-SL0-020

I will try to get me codes tonight.

Do I just need a basic OBDII reader?

Hi Alex!!!

I hope all is well with you. You can use an ODBII scanner, or you can just jumper the blue test connector. The blue connector(passenger side-right side of the footwell, just under the glove box) is in all years NSX's, even if you have an ODBII car. Read the blinks as mentioned above.

Thank you Larry.

Your expertise is greatly appreciated!

I will PM you the results

I have ordered the sensor from Dali Racing now, 115 dollars+shipping.

The local Honda dealer in Norway wanted 515 US dollars for the part

I have similar problems except only my TCS light turns on. Would the problem be my speed sensor (part no. 78420-SLO-505) instead of the ABS sensor? (Acura 1991)

If it is not the "EXACT" problem, it may not be the "EXACT" solution.

Get the codes....
