Thank you so much for this. The last time this happened I was told i had to order speed sensor for a wheel. Had it re-installed, was told the ABS was broken so pay $523.52. This time, thanks to you, I'm donating the savings to a local food bank for Christmas. God bless you Sir. Merry Christmas.

Oh wow! I hit this today... right after an oil change + filling gas. I was pretty distraught as a perfectly running vehicle hit this right after a routine oil change. Took it back to the autoshop and the OBD showed air/fuel ratio sensor is faulty. A $400 repair! Since it was not urgent, I took the vehicle back home, and after watching your video, cleaned the fuel cap and the fuel neck, closed it till multiple clicks. The light still stayed on, and then someone mentioned below that it turned off after a few days, so decided to wait. Lo and behold, after a couple of stop, rest and restarts the VSC light turned off by itself. THIS VIDEO IS AWESOME! Thank you!

for my 2005 4 runner limited- 8 cyl, I changed the Gas Cap and reset the check engine light by disconnecting the battery but the VSC & Trac lights came back on. Additionally when it got so cold, I lost the gas pedal or throttle did not work and the dash lights in question stayed on all the time even when I erased the codes. My lights were on for a different reason though, I used the OBD scanner and it was throttle control issue (forgot the exact code now). Long story short, I change the fuse for the ETCM which was burned and car worked perfectly, throttle is normal and vsc, trac & check engine lights disappeared forever (20,000 mile later still good). It seems to me that these lights can be triggered for various reasons. I hope this help someone with a similar problem.

Hey George. I have a 2003 Toyota 4 runner V8 cyl, limited edition. I have the same problelm VSC TRAC TRAC OFF light and now the Malfunction lamp light just came on after having a mechanic put a new valve gasket cover on, and a radiator flush. The mechanic diagnosed the vsc trac trac off lights as needing a new throttle/pedal sensor. They are charging me 300 bucks. How can I change the ETCM fuse you were talking about? I would like to save some money of i can, already spent 600 buck in repairs this last month.

WOW!! What a LIFE SAVER you are, Paul! We bought our Toyota Corolla brand new in 2009, and never once did we have an issue like the one you're describing here....UNTIL TODAY!! Quite suddenly, this exact problem arises and we have NO clue why! What made it even more frustrating was that TODAY was a big day for us. We are going to have the car transferred to our grandson today, and felt SO good that it was running great and having no problems whatsoever. Then this!! My husband comes in with such a long face, and starts telling me about it. He had tried a few things, and was convinced that it was something major....a bit of a pessimist, I'm afraid. I ran over to the computer and got on KZfaq and found YOU!!! You are so right, Paul, that Toyota does NOT want people to see this video. I'm convinced that thousands of people have paid big bucks to get this repaired, when they could've done it themselves in minutes! For us, it was the THIRD video that did the trick! We just kept watching and trying the next suggestion. I was confident that something was going to work because of how many people had posted their successes! My husband and I thank you, AND our grandson thanks you!! May God bless you and yours.

2005 Toyota Highlander limited. I had the oil changed mobil 1 at the same place I've been using for years.Finished the service everything normal, start to drive away after a few blocks the two lights come on. Crap, drive back to the center he checked nothing. Starting to think all kind of things on how expensive this repair is going to cost me.Drove home cursing all the way home. At home i decided to check you tube. Amazed at all the results on this issue. Removed the cap cleaned it cleaned the neck of the tank and lubed the gasket. Next day it was still on, Crap. In the afternoon went out to get something at the market and they were off. Fantastic !!!! Great job proclaimliberty2000 Thank You.

Many thanks! I watched all three of your videos and after I made sure that there was no issue with a dirty rim of the gas receptacle and the O ring of the cap was not cracked, I discovered that for some odd reason I had to repeatedly turn the gas cap until the gas cap stopped clicking. So, in the future, after filling up, I'll be sure that the gas cap has been tightened until there are no further clicking sounds made.

Once I cleaned up the gas cap area, lubed the gasket, and secure the cap tightly, the power returned to my engine. The lights didn't reset until the next morning. Happy to say nothing is on or flashing. You definitely saved me some serious change. Kudos!

Just fixed my 2004 Toyota Land Cruiser using this method. I had not clicked my gas cap tightly, and I believe it caused the check engine light and the VSC lights to come on. I tightened the cap, follwing proclaimliberty2000's directions, and I drove the car about 20 miles. The lights remained on. I then disconnected the battery for about five minutes, and the check engine and the VSC lights both went off!! I had an appointment at Toyota for them to look at the problem check engine and VSC warnings, and I was so happy to be able to cancel!!!! Thank you proclaimliberty2000 and the other posters who recommended the disconnecting of the battery, AFTER you make sure that your gas cap is on tightly! TEN STARS FOR EXCELLENCE!

okay this exact issue happened on my 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser. I went to get a state inspection, and shortly afterwards all of these lights came on simultaneously. this was a lifesaver! Sure enough the gas cap was not put on correctly after I left the inspection station. after about 10 minutes of watching this video I tried the solution. I tighten the gas cap and ensured that there were three clicks. The lights stayed on until about 45 miles. They turned off by themselves after that. Thank you so much!

Same vehicle, same problem. All the lights came on after a gas fill up at around 6.5 miles. Tightened the cap and still on after another 7 miles. Restarted and still on. WTF is the deal of 45 minutes, is the ACU to stupid to reset when the problem is resolved? Now I will have to connect it to my analyzer just to reset the worthless emissions scam. Really sick and tired of battling the engine check scams in all my Toyota vehicles. Toyota also has a scam that when the converter gets 5% plugged that damn light will stay on forever but no driving or gas performance loss. Been driving a Sienna now for 5 years now with the stupid light on since I refuse to replace parts that it doesn't need. Also found the knock sensor (another useless one) will force the engine intermittently to loss half it's power. That I call safety hazard and ACU's that do this should be recalled and mandated flashed of replaced. I expect these scams from the American manufactures but now Toyota has jumped in on the legal criminal games as well.

Good post. I bought a new 2008 Toyota Camry XLE back in the day and was headed back to CA from back east. Was on I-70 near Grand Jct Colorado and the little skidding car light and engine light came on along with VSC showing up in my display in the speedometer center. I don't know what prompted me to think of it but got out, took the fuel cap off, used spit to wipe and a last bit of spit to lube the "O" ring on the gas cap. The VSC and little skidding car lights went out immediately but had to drive a few miles before the check engine light went off. God bless Japanese Engineering and their contribution to "throw away" design philosophy.

Have an ‘08 Sienna XLE. had all these random misfire codes (VSC) and even would have to shut my van down as the “traction control” light would blink along with the engine light causing the van to lose power and decrease in speed, till I shut it off and restarted it. And that would take care of it for a week or so then back again, usually one the Highway. So off to the shoulder again as the van would slowly lose power and buck and gas be basically unresponsive Seems like maybe the compression was changing over the 200,000 miles as i started putting premium gas in and the higher octane was the key.. as all the codes went away (once cleared) and never came back. Same spark plugs. I did change one injector (before I switched to premium gas) as it did have that code come up for the number 2. But the check engine lights would still come on. But same spark plugs on all 6 cylinders as those back are just too hard to change without a good reason. Again premium gas and all my check engine lights and blinking lights are a thing of the past and it’s nice having a dash free of those. (Those lights came on probable a dozen times in the past. But now problem solved for like 9 months now and counting. So if it returns might try that. I’ve disconnected my battery several times. And light always would return after a period of time. Also I had cleaned my gas cap in the past. But premium gas is what helped when everything else was just a temporary fix. God bless

2004 Toyota RAV 4. Simultaneous display of VSC/TRAC warning light and Check Engine Light. NO switch for VSC/TRAC. Two parts of your counsel were the answer for me...OUTSTANDING: 1. Paraphrasing: "Almost always the gas cap." Then, clean the filler pipe then lube the gas cap gasket and, in my case, add some chassis grease to the fill pipe...because my rubber gasket was showing signs of cracking. 2. DRIVE IT A BIT. The lube on the gas cap was not an "instant" fix. Sensors needed time to be "satisfied" that evaporative emissions were under control. I drove the car several miles and parked. Lights still on. Next day, I got in the car to actually go somewhere, and the warning lights were off. Both of those tidbits were the key...as was the way you presented them. The first one was the fix, but the second one was crucial to being patient enough to actually legitimately test the fix. GREAT advice. Ordering a cap on Amazon. Will clean the grease off the filler neck before installing the new cap. THANK YOU!!

Your problem fixed? If not. Have an ‘08 Sienna XLE. had all these random misfire codes (VSC) and even would have to shut my van down as the “traction control” light would blink along with the engine light causing the van to lose power and decrease in speed, till I shut it off and restarted it. And that would take care of it for a week or so then back again, usually one the Highway. So off to the shoulder again as the van would slowly lose power and buck and gas be basically unresponsive Seems like maybe the compression was changing over the 200,000 miles as i started putting premium gas in and the higher octane was the key.. as all the codes went away (once cleared) and never came back. Same spark plugs. I did change one injector (before I switched to premium gas) as it did have that code come up for the number 2. But the check engine lights would still come on. But same spark plugs on all 6 cylinders as those back are just too hard to change without a good reason. Again premium gas and all my check engine lights and blinking lights are a thing of the past and it’s nice having a dash free of those. (Those lights came on probable a dozen times in the past. But now problem solved for like 9 months now and counting. So if it returns might try that. I’ve disconnected my battery several times. And light always would return after a period of time. Also I had cleaned my gas cap in the past. But premium gas is what helped when everything else was just a temporary fix. God bless

It might not turn the lights off immediately. Some cars might take 40-50+ miles of driving for the sensors to detect the gas cap is on properly. If it happens a lot, you might need a new gas cap or gasket.

b c, get yourself a $35 code reader and you'll know if it was an oxygen sensor or the catalytic converter. I put my code reader on and I saw No Code display which means all sensors were fine. It may have been your gas cap and the mechanic or parts store told you it was the catalytic converter and the oxygen sensor. Trust your reader before taking it to any service stations or auto parts stores!!

Paul - Thanks for your information and videos. My daughter has a 2012 Corolla LE and we were experiencing the same issues (Maintenance light on & Trac Off indicator on), We tried all of your recommendations except for the 5th one, and still experienced the same problem. Since I was unsure of what two terminals to cross in the recalibration as outlined in video 5, I just went ahead and removed both battery terminals, cleaned both terminals and post, and reattached (more or less just reset the trouble codes in the car by doing this I think). After that, everything is working fine. Also, this was caused by what you initially stated, while putting gas in her car, she failed to put the gas cap back on... Thanks again for all of your insight. Ron in Corona, CA.
