ABS and VSC flashing when parked or stopped

10

Asked by Kayla Jan 10, 2018 at 01:33 PM about the 2003 Toyota Highlander Base V6

Question type: General

About a month ago while driving my engine light
and vsc light just randomly came on at the same
time . Now when I’m parked or stopped by vsc light
goes off for a second then comes back on and
flashes along with the ABS light . Now when I start
driving the VSC stays on solid and the ABS goes
away completely . Any idea what this could be ?

OMG - thanks to all but my flashing VSC/Traction Control/ABS lights were not gas cap but indeed a disconnected small vacuum tube to airbox that had split. For now repaired end with electrical tape, reconnected, disconnected negative terminal at battery to clear codes and we are FIXED!!! Take a peek under the hood at the airbox and ensure all hoses are connected, worked for me.
