Default 05 Accord TCS Indicator and Activaton light

New here. So I have an 05 Accord Ex v6 and about 2 weeks ago I turned the car on and the Tcs triangle with "!" came on. Tcs not working. I tried pressing the button to turn it on but nothing. I started driving and next to it TICS word came on after driving like 1000 feet. I pulled over to gas station and restarted the car. Same thing occured. I plugged the Bluetooth Lemur bod scanner. Only thing it read was, ABS problem something error code 84. I just don't know what to do right now. ABS works fine. I slammed on the brakes and ABS took over. I've read something about replacing speed sensors, or ABS sensors and something about reprogramming the computer. Any ideas are welcomed.... thanks

Yes I found it. It kept coming on many other websites but to no avail and decided to try it. before you start, the car should be off without the key.
  1. Short pins 4 and 9 on the OBD connector located under the dash on the driver side. I used a paper clip, but any stiff (solid) light gauge wire will do.
  2. Now put your foot on the brake pedal and hold it down lightly while turning on the ignition switch to position “II” (all the dash lights come on, but don’t start it).
  3. The ABS indicator will come on, but then should go off, at this point release the brake pedal.
  4. The ABS light should come on again, press the brake pedal again and hold down lightly.
  5. The ABS light should go off again, release the brake pedal.
  6. After a few seconds watch for the ABS light to blink twice and go off, if it does you have successfully cleared the fault codes.
  7. Turn the ignition switch off, remove the key and disconnect the jumper wire from the OBD connector.
  8. If the ABS light comes back on again after step #7, do the entire procedure again, it may take a few tries to get the fault codes to clear.
This worked perfectly for me. It's called something like VSA fault reset. It did take me like 4 tries to get it to work. I felt proud when I was able to do it. Saved my self a few bucks. It hasn't come one since I did it and everything with the TCS and ABS is working as it should. Try it...best of luck!!
