The Pilot is basically FWD with the rear driven off the front through the VTM-4 system.

As I said before; IF the rear wheels are turning, then at least one of the front wheels MUST be turning.
Something would be seriously broken and the car would be undrivable if this were not true.

Yes, but find it of little use. The VTM-4 system does an excellent job all by itself.

Hard to say? If that is the Traction control or Vehicle Stability Control indicator, it would be telling you that the system is detecting slippery conditions. (Kind of a No-sh!t, moment)
