Default "VSC" and "VSC Off" always lit

First, I have one bad TPM which is throwing light on dash. Replacement on order.

My indy hooked up his machine and did not find any codes thrown.

Is there any correlation between the TPM and the VSC and VSC Off lights?

Does anyone have any ideas besides go to the dealer?

Thanks

yes. once you replace the tire pressure sensor, you'll have to reset the light. the dealer should do it for free. takes 30 seconds.

TPMS sensor and the VSC/VSC Off shouldn't be related.

I've had 3 of my sensors go bad, I've had a flat, and I've had a slow leak. I'm INTIMATELY familiar with that damn TPMS light!

I've had the VSC/VSC Off lights come on before...once due to a bad O2 sensor and once due to a not-screwed-on-three-clicks gas cap (thanks to my lovely wife). Both times I got the two VSC lights along with the Check Engine light. And both times the car was throwing error codes that could be read via the OBD-II interface.

Default Update

The replacement of the TPM removed the VSC code lights.
