LS430 check VSC light on after check engine light on
My car (06 GS430) began giving me more frequent "Check VSC" warnings. (Code P0455 in my case. Really glad I bought that OBDII tool--resetting the codes is a snap!)
I knew that a loose gas cap could cause this, so normally I just give it a twist and it tightens. Now I found that no matter how many "clicks" I tightened the gas cap, it would not cinch down snug. The lightest turn the opposite way would open it.
I was all set to head over to CarQuest for a replacement filler cap. But I thought I'd inspect mine first just to see why it stopped holding. Upon inspection, I saw that what holds the cap in place is compression of the rubber O-ring at the back of the cap, which compresses against the filler neck. That apparently was no longer happening.
I carefully removed the O-ring from the cap--using screwdrivers to lift it over the edge of the groove it sits in. Like removing a bike tire from the rim--work your way around. Then I cut a strip of electrical tape about 10" long, and 1/4" wide. I wound this into the curved groove where the O-ring normally sits, just to build up a little thickness. Put the O-ring back in place. Done.
Now the cap tightens like it's supposed to, and thus far, it has stopped the VSC error codes. Don't know if it will fix your issue or not, Good luck.

1999 Lexus LX470 rear window stuck in down position. Removed inner trim. How to raise class window manually? tommo
Use a multimeter to test the motor electrical connector. When toggling the up/down switch you should see voltage toggle +12 volts to -12 volts and vice versa. If you see that, it confirms the switch is working and the problem is the motor/regulator. If you don't see those voltages, then the problem is in the wiring harness or the master switch. If you determine that the problem is the wiring harness or switch, you can jumper battery and ground directly to the motor to get it to raise the window. Just swap power and ground at the motor to reverse direction. But, if the switch is working and you're getting those voltages, the motor is dead. There's no way to raise the window unless you cut the cables and move it up by hand. Then tape it in the up postion or use a block of wood inside the door panel to lock it up.
