Question Weird - Vsc OFF Trac OFF 110 Degree

Hi,

Today was around 110 Degree, and I drove approx 300 Miles, no problem in driving.

When I came home, and took the truck for a short drive and stopped for 5 minutes with the engine running the VSC off and Trac OFF light came on. 2 Months back I changed the gas cap.

And every time I start the truck the CLOCK on dash goes to 1:00.

Starts fine, battery looks ok, any suggestions are appreciated, will take to Autozone to read the codes.

TIA

I just replaced 10A FUSE in the main engine compartment it was labelled ECU-B VSC went off and clock and mirror working.

Everything works fine, however, it has blown twice already, I keep changing fuse. i think it usually happens when car is parked with ignition running.

any idea?

Hi RC,

Hope all is great with you, reading almost all of your posts. Well, here is what happened since replacing the fuse labeled ECU B, 3 times. The third time it hasn't blown.

After replacing the 3rd time, I drove 500 miles yesterday and no blown fuse. Apparently that fuse controls mirror, clock and for some reason the VSC OFF and VSC Trac light comes on when it is blown, it is silly.

If the fuse blows up again will post, for the last 2 days it is ok.

Thank you.

After going thru 7 fuses. It was driver side mirror, when I tried to adjust up and down the fuse would blow, or when I put in reverse.

When this fuse goes out, the mirror would not work, clock reset, anti-theft off, driver seat memory and VSC off VSC trac lights would come on.

The best think to do is change the mirror actuator, or leave the mirror switch in the middle position.
