Zett1111 Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 I have a 2001 LS430 with 75,000 mile on it. Frequently the VSC off, ABS, warning (red triangle one), and parking brake lights will come on at once with the chime. Doesn't matter how fast you are going, you could be sitting still and they still come on, braking or not braking. I was on trip over the weekend, going about 110 for a bit (had to clean her out) and never came on during the trip or at highway speeds. Seems to come on at a stop or slower speeds. The brake fluid is topped off and this car always runs like a sewing machine, incredible car. Any ideas? This is annoying. I do have an OSBII reader if this will help.

I have a 2001 ls430 that is doing the same thing. Lights for abs and vsc go on for a while then off. One fellow thought that it may be a dirty speed sensors at the wheel, but it is a bit of work to get to them with out knowing for sure that that is the problem. Have you found anything out. I would only go to the dealer as a last resort Regards Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbguy Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 Two thoughts, Check both battrey connections.if ok? Then start looking at your altenater. I have read,Vsc light sometimes shows inpending altenater failure. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbguy Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 I might have misinformed you! vsc light means pending battrey failure. Do you still have the oem battrey in the car? if so have it checked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
