Honda Cr-v drive indicator lamps keeps on blinking

I just have observed the Drive indicator lamp of my Honda keeps on blinking while I'm driving. What does it mean?

    Hi chubb1,



    thanks for the info. Do you know how to fix it? When I turn the engine off it turns back to normal but for quite sometimes it turn blinking again. I just wonder it signifies something that needs maintenance. Thanks again.

Why does the all-wheel drive keep disengaging when you need it?

Is the All-Wheel Drive Disabled Indicator on ?
An ABS DTC may cause the AWD Disabled light to illuminate. Check for ABS DTCs if no AWD fault is present.


?€¢
The AWD data list can be used to assist in determining which type of fault is causing the AWD Disabled Lamp to illuminate. with a scan tool, verify the above data displays are within specification.
?‡'
AWD temperature disables can be caused by an open circuit.

Using a scan tool, select the Body - Instrument Panel Cluster - Special Functions - Lamp Test mode. In the Lamp Test mode you can turn on or off the instrument panel indicators. All indicators will turn ON when commanded on and OFF when commanded off. The AWD DISABLE indicator should turn on or off as commanded.
?‡'
If the AWD DISABLE indicator is always ON or always OFF, replace the instrument cluster. Refer to Instrument Cluster Replacement in Instrument Panel, Gages and Console.


The AWD disable lamp illuminates when one of the following conditions exists for 5 seconds:
?€¢
The PCM commands the solenoid ON and the voltage feedback remains high, B+.


?€¢
The PCM commands the solenoid OFF and the voltage feedback remains low, 0 volts. This condition is present for 3 key cycles.


?€¢
The PCM detects fluid temp is too high.


You need to have this hooked-up to a professional grade scan tool.

Dash lights 2012

wow, 2007 and 2012 in one blue box....
or open the glove box, extract operators guide,
read that page for that lamp, bingo the name and the cause and what to do. lost the manual they are free at honda. or here.

http://justgivemethedamnmanual.com/honda/honda-ridgeline-owners-manua/
page 70, read this.... I can RTM, sure can....

quote
VTM-4 lamp (your 4wd?)
This indicator normally comes on for
a few seconds when you turn the
ignition switch to the ON (II)
position. If it comes on at any other
time, there is a problem in the 4WD
system. Take the vehicle to your
dealer to have it checked.
If the indicator blinks while driving,
the VTM-4 fluid temperature is too
high. Pull to the side of the road
when it is safe, shift to Park, and let
the engine idle until the indicator
goes out.
Continuing to drive with the VTM-4
indicator blinking may cause serious

damage to the system. (end page70)

if really DIY guy?
the then the FSM elaborates this to no end.

buy the FSM and read that. (most things on most newer cars are anything but simple)

I have malfunction indicator lamp on how i can fix that

go to autozne and have them do free engine computer scan. They will tell you fault codes.

Or, try disconnecting the battery for 1/2 hour. Then reconnect and drive 10 miles. It may have fixed itself already.
MIL light on is not a big issue. only if flashing

Drive Symbol is flashing

Indicates a Transmission problem. If you take it into the dealer, they can put it on the computer to diagnose the problem. Might be a pressure switch. Did it stop flashing after you turned off the CR-V and restart it later?
