I purchase my 2005 LS430 UL in the beginning of the year.
Black on black
163*** miles
Clean Title
I checked the code and it was giving me code P0446 and P0441
P0441 = EVAPORATIVE EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM INCORRECT PURGE FLOW
P0446 = EVAPORATIVE EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM VENT CONTROL CIRCUIT
These codes are often caused by a loose (or leaky) gas cap. Try clearing the DTC's and tighten your gas cap to see if this will address the problem.
Please note that there are 4 types of OBDII codes:
• P = Powertrain
• B = Body
• C = Chassis
• U = Undefined
So, P0441 and P0446 are DTC's for the Powertrain that caused the "Check Engine" light to come on. They probably had nothing to do with your "Check VSC" (Vehicle Stability Control) light.
The "Check VSC" has its own set of DTC's, which belongs to the "C" group as follows:
Most OBDII readers can only read the "P" DTC's, and cannot read the "C" DTC's.

Yes, just make sure you twist the gas cap on and hear a few clicks to insure you get a good seal. Next thing would be to try an new gas cap. That's the easy stuff first.
