Maintenance question Re VSC light and VSC OFF light

Asked by Panda53 May 16, 2013 at 11:04 AM about the 2005 Lexus SC

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 2005 SC430, that is impeccably maintained and serviced.  Just recently the VSC
and VSC OFF lights have come on.  The car appears and feels to be driving the same
and can find no discernible difference in driving.  Can you render any help or information
regarding these two lights?

To start with some Auto parts stores have and will connect a device to read error codes in your cars computer. See if you can find someone you trust to get a reading before you pump a bunch of $$ into your Lexus dealer.
