I just recently got my GX about a week ago and yesterday i took it for it longest drive to the airport to pickup a friend and back. This morning i get in to run a few errands and to my surprise i get these visual indicators on my dash. i definitely did not see this yesterday so im in a little state of panic especially since my car was sold without warranty. what do you guys think?

 

Could be a number of things. You need to get the codes using a OBDII scanner to know for sure. It could be as simple as a gas cap not tightened all the way.

 

Like RC says - tighten the gas cap.

 

i decided not to work this morning and work at home... so i went out to the garage and saw a bottle of gas tx leftover and decided to pour the remainder in my truck... now i get teh vsc trac/off and cel on... the gas cap is tight but the light still on... anyone? or should i just disconnect the battery but i hate to have to reprogram the doors/locks and windows again...

 

thanks guys! i went to the dealer and it turned out the problem was the gas cap. they replaced it and reset the code. im all good now

 

hey walley, what did they say was the matter with the gas cap?

 

also, is there any other way to clear the codes lights from our lexus? thanx

 

Some auto parts stores that have code readers, can slear the readings. If they are valid, they will come back.

 

Remove the battery terminals or get a OBDII and reset it manually through the scanner. But if the problem still exists the code will come back.

 

the gas treatment must have increased the tank pressure and did something weird to the cap but anyway i just left the cap off for 15min and went back closed it tight and the lights were fixed... so before you buy a new cap just experiment... thanx all for your help...cs
