what does it mean when the light AWD light comes on in CRV 2013
8 Answers
Read your owners manual but it probably means the AWD is engaging due to slippery conditions.
I own a 2012. This started happening. Owners manual and on-line pundits indicate that this means the AWD is overheating and not working and should be checked out. Call my mechanic today.
2013 honda CRV The AWD light started coming on. Shut the CRV off and the light would go off. If I started it back up the light wouldn't be on but drive it just a little and it would come back on. think the AWD wasn't working either, Had the "rear Diff pressure Solenoid" replaced ($700) seemed to fix it. Took a while for the dealer to find it.

Just curious if your 2013 CRV is still working properly?

Just bought a 2012 CRV. It's winter in michigan and my AWD comes on after a few miles and stays on until I shut the car off. It comes on almost all the time, but occasionally I get through a drive with no light. Can't seem to find a pattern.

Can any of you above tell me where you went to have the Honda AWD fixed?

I know it's been 5years but I wanted to see if anyone solved the problem, When this first started to occur I had differentiai oil changed . It was about time anyway. For awhile it behaved the same way as previous person, Christopher Dene. described. I hit a curb in a parking lot and bent the lower control arm on the left front and oddly enough after the replacement, the AWD light did not come back on for about three years. Now it stays on 90 % of the time. I read the manual when it first occurred. I think there is a warning light to the left of the AWD light that means go to dealer. If it doesn't hurt anything I will ignore it...I have driven FWD only Hondas for years .
