Thanks for the video very informative. My problem is the VSA light is not on all the time. It comes on after driving for a bit (usually under 30 minutes). But everytime i shut off the car and turn it back on the light goes away. Almost like when you shut off the car it resets itself. Any suggestions?

Mine's an '09. I went to a car wash place I had never been to before that is staffed for detail jobs and also has the conventional drive thru operation. The guy told me to put it in park before entering. Shortly after, my car started jerking violently. He yelled at me to let off the brake. I told him I didn't have my foot on the brake pedal. He said "Well your emergency brake is engaged or something because I see your brake lights on!" I wasn't supposed to be in "Park" I was supposed to leave it in "Neutral"! A lever that operates on a belt had come up from the pavement behind my car to roll my car forward through the carwash by easing pressure behind the rear tires! After I left, my shifter wouldn't work and my VSA light came on. When I pushed the button to shift gears, it wouldn't move out of the "Parked" position! The place also had signs that they couldn't be held liable for damages!🙄 I realized there's a button under a little panel next to the gearshift and when pressed, the shifter could move but it had to be pressed and held every single time I wanted to get out of "Park". I knew I needed to get it fixed but I put it off for a year thinking it would be very costly. I watched one tutorial video before this one but I'm always so busy that I never got around to troubleshooting. My vehicle inspection is due next month and I knew it wouldn't pass with that issue so I finally took it to a mechanic so I wouldn't have to fuss with it on my own. Turns out, it was none of these fixes and the video I had watched before this one didn't mention it either so I'm glad I didn't waste my time trying to figure it out because I'm not mechanically inclined🙃 It was a brake switch that only cost $7 to replace but the mechanic had to order it and have it brought by a runner so I also got charged his $50 hourly rate for the labor but I'm just glad to finally have it resolved and that it didn't cost an arm and a leg!🥳🙌🏼

Tomorrow I'm going to follow your video for more information. I was curious as to why it takes 10 minutes for the lights to go on. Is it a check cycle it goes through every startup?

I have a 09 J35 manual coupe. I get a flashing VSA, an ! and check engine -- and then the engine bogs. Turn the engine off and back on and it's fine. The code says cyl misfire, usually 5 or 6, but runs super smooth. Until the VSA light comes back on...then it will bog again. Sometimes after restart the 3 lights stay on, and it runs smooth as silk...would the VSA bork the timing a bit? While rfestarting clears the error sometimes you have to do that with the car rolling! Not a good feeling...

Your youtube video was good but my VSA light is not always on. It is intermitent. It seems that when I start the car and the engine reves up to 1200-1500 RPM and stays there not dropping to the normal idle speed around 800 rpm the VSA light will turn on. I can often make it go off by turning off the car, wait 10 seconds and restart. It does not always work. Also when this occurs the engine light starts to flash. Other times I start the car and it goes to a normal 800-900 rpm idle speed the engine light stops flashing and sometimes will go off. When this happens the VSA light does not come on. Some of the error codes I got before were missfiring of cylinder 1&2. the mileage is about 144,000. Another observation was my tires were very worn so I replaced them and the VSA light stayed off for about 2 weeks of driving the car maybe 5-6 times per week.
