XRV Speed Signal Fault

Hi, I've got a 2023 Honda XRV with a gasoline engine. I'm seeing an ABS lamp, traction problems, and the ABS seems to be malfunctioning. The car has about 149163 kilometers on it. Could this be a defective control unit?

Summary of the thread

A 2023 Honda XRV is experiencing ABS and traction control issues, with the ABS lamp illuminated. The problem may stem from a defective ABS control unit, especially since the speedometer is functioning normally. It is advised to have a professional workshop diagnose the issue, as it could involve a faulty internal sensor within the ABS module, potentially costing around 1000€ for repairs.

Whoa, sounds familiar! I had a similar issue with my XRV. Is your speedometer going nuts too? Check the wheel speed sensors and the wiring harness leading to the ABS module before replacing the control unit. Any recent work done on the transmission or wheels?

Thanks! The speedometer seems to be working normally. The issue seems isolated to the ABS and traction control systems. Does this still point towards the wheel speed sensors or wiring, or could it be a deeper problem within the ABS control unit itself? Any specific diagnostic steps you'd recommend?

With the speedometer working, it sounds like the ABS module itself might be the problem. I spent weeks trying to diagnose mine, and it turned out to be a bad internal sensor in the ABS unit. Honestly, save yourself the headache and take it to a shop with experience in Honda ABS systems. They'll be able to pinpoint it quickly. I ended up paying around 1000€ for the repair, but it was worth it to have it done right.

I appreciate the insight and the suggestion to seek professional assistance. Based on your experience, I'll schedule an appointment at a trusted workshop to diagnose and address the speed signal fault. The repair was estimated at 1000€ because the control unit was defective.
