jvm Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 I have a 2002 RX300 and the check engine, VSC, and Trac lights just all came on. This occurred 2 weeks ago, so I brought the SUV in to a repair shop and was advised that the gas cap had not been seated properly. The SUV was fine for a couple of weeks and about 3 gas station fill-ups, but it occurred again this week while driving home. I removed and reseated the gas cap three separate times, but I still can not get the lights to go off. I am open to any ideas or past experiences folks have had with this. Thanks. jvm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djspawn00 Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 Take your car to an autozone (free) or any shop with an OBDII scanner and retrieve the codes. Post the codes here so we can try to confirm whats triggering your warning light. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same thing happened while my wife was driving back home yesterday. I took the car (RX300) to my expert mechanic and he said it was probably the gas cap. Lights did not turn on again after he re-did the gas cap. But from your experience we should wait and see if they reappear. Lately the car was hit from the back and the exhaust, emmission system vapor canister, radiator, battery etc were replaced,and it is now almost 6 weeks since we got the car back from the workshop. Can this be related to this accident or because some parts were not installed properly. Any thoughts as what to do if the lights reappear will be very helpful. JVM, please keep us informed as what was diagnosed in your case. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
