I was encountered with the engine and stability control of my 2012 Toyota Camry lights on yesterday. I tried to fixed it by myself and watched several KZfaq videos. Most of them gave me wrong information or solutions. Lucky i watched your video and convinced by the way you presented. So, I run bdm and found out that the cause was from the spark plugs, So I bought from auto zone and changed it. walla ! Problem solved! One thing I would suggest other people watching your KZfaq is that, they have to erase or maybe wait for a while before the light go away. For me after I changed the spark plugs the reader showed me that there is an electrical coil problem, however, after I erased the reading , somehow the light vanished. Thank you so much you saved one soul after 4 years you posted your video. 😅

So first, glad to help. Second, good work too. And finally, don't be totally surprised to find there really is a coil problem (and the lights come back). More common than plugs and the new ones may mask a weak coil...

You have no idea how much of a relief this video is! I've got a 2012 Scion XB and out of nowhere it started running badly and the check engine light and slip indicator was on too. I took it to a shop that said the number 3 cylinder is misfiring. I bought all new spark plugs and ignition coils and will install them tomorrow. I sure do hope that fixes all the issues. They had said the slip indicator was from possibly a faulty ABS sensor, but I think it's more what you say: that the engine running bad is messing it up. Again, thanks for the great info!!!

Recently my 2016 Tundra 4x4 has had random occasions where the check engine, ABS, Traction Control will all come on while driving. The truck seems to be running and driving fine. So I stop, turn off the engine and upon restarting it, sometimes, everything will reset to normal, ie. No warning lights. I took it O’reillys and Napa and their scan tool showed error U0155; abnormal communication with instrument panel. I took to the Toyota dealer and they couldn’t get any error codes! ? Told me to bring it back when the warning lights were on and charged me $197 for this expert diagnostic advice that didn’t find or fix anything! I called another Toyota dealer, described the issue and the U0155 code and after some research they said I’d have to bring it in while the lights were on. Right now it’s been off for over a week. All I can do is hope it doesn’t come back on. Anyone else have this problem come up?

A couple days ago I actually got a full Christmas tree including service trans, service emergency brake. Check engine came on and i pulled two codes p1daf for implausible torque requested and also p0562 which is pcm voltage low. It threw my jeep into limp mode. Anyway i cleared the codes and got it out of limp but the cluster still flickers accompanied by traction light and occasionally it shuts the radio off. I am stumped.

Don't know if this was a coincidence but went and checked the gas cap and was able to tighten it by a click or two. Since then I had stopped for gas, then drove 70 mi and the indicators were still lit at present.

I had a engine light come on last week, Garage diagnosed and cleaned EGR valve and no engine light anymore, but after 3 days got the stability control on. No problems for 6 years and now suddenly 2 different problem in 5 days. Car is Chevrolet Orlando Auto Diesel in UK. The garage has tried to recalibrate/reprogram SWASM(Steering Wheel Angle Sensor Module) but stability control light is still on. He says we may need to order this part itself again online. Could something else be causing this ?

What the code said was a cylinder misfire so I took it to go get fixed and it was a bad spark plug. Bad spark plug can cause a cylinder to misfire which can cause to check engine light to turn on and it take engine light that's on can turn off traction control in VCS causing the car to slide. For once the issue was resolved the car was running new again. That was the only major thing wrong with my car since I bought it.

I can only guess. No other times? Rare. Check that you have good tread on the tires. Otherwise, a good mechanic will have to do a hands on diagnostic.

I drive a Chevy Impala 2010, and recently it started to do this thing where the Check Engine light and Traction Control light comes on. The engine power is reduced and my dash says to service STABILITRAK and service tire traction system. Most of the time it would go away on its own and the car would drive normally again, but it comes back every now and then. Any ideas?

So long as the check engine light is on, its NOT a stabilitrak issue. Have the engine codes read and get the resulting problems serviced. Stabilitrak will then resolve...

There is a serious issue, likely with the engine. Once a good mechanic takes care of that the other lights will resolve.
