Check Engine light caused by Precision TC
Ok I know its no Precision's TC fault for causing the check engine light to go off on 99% of all 430's. To top it off my VSC is off to because of it. The reason why the engine light comes on is because of an extra sensor on the 430's that tricks it to think somethings wrong when in fact its working fine. But I am wondering if anyone with a 430 ever figured out fixing this problem. Ive been driving with the engine light on for a little more then a year now. Someone help. this light is getting freakin annoying.

it has nothing to do with dealership. most people with tc on gs430 they got the problem with check engine light, so that has to do with some sensor difference between gs400 and gs430. i don't know of anyone knowing how to fix it yet though

It does not appear to be real problem, so the masking tape is probably all you need to move on with your life!

I had a member come by a couple of years ago and I pulled the codes. Cannot recall exactly which code it was m but it was for one of the actuators. I cleared the code and all was fine for half a day and then it came back. Lexus even replaced it under warranty for him. Still, the code came back.
