The ABS and VSA lights are on and both the power sliding doors do not work when the vehicle is on and is in park. It would only work when the vehicle is off.

No the check engine light is not on. With the sliding door when the vehicle is off I can open the doors with the switch, but as soon as I turn on the car and the doors are open the beep sound comes on, but my car is in park not on any gear. In order for me to open the doors the vehicle has to be off. This just happened last week.

Camachojd, did you ever get your problems resolved? I have a 2005 Odyssey and I am having the exact same problems. VSA, ABS and triangle exclamation lights are on. I can be in park, in a parking lot, on level ground, and my sliding doors will not open without first turning the engine completely off.

I realize this is almost a year later but maybe it will help future visitors to this site. I had the exact symptoms described with the VSA, ABS, triangle and my rear doors would not open. The problem turned out to be a wheel sensor, that a rodent chewed through a signal wire. After the sensor was replaced the door problems and faulty lights disappeared.

So, I had my CV axle replaced, that's when my ABS light came on and they forget what it is with the swirling lines in the car came on. My backsliding doors will not operate. Won't open when my vehicle's in operation but I can close them. And the service Is lights won't go off. It has to do with them changing the axle taking the tire off so why would that make a center go out I don't understand. I tried the trick of taking my positive cable off of battery replacing it had someone push the buttons down to the slide doors at the same time as I cranked the vehicle by the way that doesn't work. Lol

Hello,

As there are a few different things going on, let's focus on the ABS light.
It is possible that when the CV axle was installed something came loose, maybe the ABS sensor got loose or got damaged.
I have also seen ABS lights come on due to the replacement shaft not having the rings for the ABS sensors to monitor. Many times, those ABS rings are supposed to be removed from the old axle and installed on the new one.

A good first step would be to scan the vehicle to retrieve the ABS code(s). It can help with diagnostics.
