Re: Lexus 2003 GS 300 VSC warning light
Please post the trouble codes that are stored in the ECM. You can usually have them read for free at any auto parts store (California is a known exception).
Problems with VSC (vehicle stability control) would usually point to a faulty or dirty wheel sensor, connector, or wire, and possibly an accelerometer-type sensor. This may require an ABS-capable code scanner, but see what you can pull from the ECM with a normal code reader. I do not know how a new cat converter would be related to VSC problems unless you had problems with the emissions system as well. Bottom line is...when you have the codes read, ASK TO SEE THE READOUT and write the code numbers down. Don't just ask for their interpretation. Good luck and welcome to AF!
