Smokey Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 Lately I've been having problems with the VSC in my 98 ls400. I just went to the dealer today for the second time on this problem. Today they said they found a code for the yaw rate sensor. It was intermitently working. Okay but they wont replace it because it wasnt a fail code. They reset everything and said it checked out normal. I took the car home and tonight while I was driving home the Check VSC red dot came back on. I am going to talk to them tomorrow about it and see what they will do. I was curious though looking through the posts I saw the following. DEAD BATTERY post. This guy said replacing his dead battery fixed his VSC problem. Is that a common problem with low battery and VSC. I do remember the service guy saying the battery could be low but then he said they checked the alternator and it was charging at normal rates but I don't recall him checking the battery voltage. Anyways I am calling them tomorrow to see if they will replace the yaw sensor but I just wanted to see if anyone had had any problem similar and know of an other solution. Thanks Smokey :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SW03ES Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 VSC is Lexus' stability control system. It has yaw sensors that sense if the car is in a slide, then applies brakes to certain wheels to correct the skid. Have they tried cleaning the yaw or ABS sensors?
