Nate98Ls400 Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 So when I bought the car (98 LS400) the ABS and the VSC were on due to a bad abs sensor.. I soon got a new sensor and replaced it.. got in the car started her up eventually the light cleared and everything was cleared off the dash.. once I try to accelerate the cars throttle disengages and the traction control light blinks for a few seconds.. then after it turns back off and I have throttle control again.. but when I turn the VSC off I have no issues with the traction control and everything is fine.. anyone have a problem with this??? If so please help..聽 Nate 馃檪 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulo57509 Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 If there's issues with the VSC, it should store a diagnostic Trouble Code(s) (DTC).聽 There are around 10 different codes. I would have the vehicle scanned for these codes.聽 Be aware that not all generic scanners will scan for manufacturer-specific codes.聽 You may end up having to have the dealership scan for the codes.

Yeah me and my buddy have a regular scanner and couldn鈥檛 find anything.. so I鈥檒l just take it to Lexus to see what they can find.. but also when I come to a stop the abs pump or something makes the front driver side brake caliper (where I replaced the sensor) compress and makes the car shake before coming to a complete stop every time at the the same speed.

Exact thing happening to mine currently! It is doing the compress and jerk with a weird !Removed! noise, tried to mess with the abs sensor and it鈥檚 now doing the same thing acceleration and tc light is on and gone, is there any chance you figured out what was going on there? Older post so this might be a long shot but this has been a diagnostic nightmare聽 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
