VSC OFF Indicator Light Remains ON: Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 Toyota Corolla. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. CHECK CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM 
    1. Check if a CAN communication system DTC is output. Refer to DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM .

      Result

      Result Proceed to
      DTC is not output A
      DTC is output B

    B → See step   9 

    A: Go to next step 

  2. CHECK IF SKID CONTROL ECU CONNECTOR IS SECURELY CONNECTED 
    1. Check if the skid control ECU connector is securely connected.

      OK

      The connector is securely connected.

    NG → CONNECT CONNECTOR TO ECU CORRECTLY 

    OK: Go to next step 

  3. CHECK BATTERY 
    1. Check the battery voltage.

      Standard Voltage

      11 to 14 V

      Result

      Result Proceed to
      OK A
      NG (for 2AZ-FE) B
      NG (for 2ZR-FE) C

    B → See step   10 

    C → See step   11 

    A: Go to next step 

  4. INSPECT SKID CONTROL ECU (CSW TERMINAL) 
    1. Disconnect the skid control ECU connector.

    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Condition Switch Condition Specified Condition
      A66-30 (CSW) - Body ground VSC OFF switch OFF (Not pressed) 10 kΩ or higher

    NG → See step   6 

    OK: Go to next step 

  5. INSPECT COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY 
    1. Reconnect the skid control ECU connector.
    2. Perform the Active Test of the combination meter (meter CPU) using the Techstream. Refer to DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST .
    3. Check the combination meter.

      OK

      The VSC OFF indicator light turns on or off in accordance with the Techstream operation.

      HINT: 

      If troubleshooting has been carried out according to the Problem Symptoms Table, refer back to the table and proceed to the next step before replacing the part. Refer to PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE .

    NG → See step   12 

    OK → See step   8 

  6. INSPECT VSC OFF SWITCH 
    1. Disconnect the VSC OFF switch connector.

    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition
      6 (+) - 3 (E) Switch is pushed in Below 25 Ω
      6 (+) - 3 (E) Switch is not pushed in 10 kΩ or higher

    NG → See step   13 

    OK: Go to next step 

  7. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (SKID CONTROL ECU - VSC OFF SWITCH) 
    1. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      A66-30 (CSW) - E47-6 (+) Always Below 1 Ω
      A66-30 (CSW) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      E47-3 (E) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω

      HINT: 

      If troubleshooting has been carried out according to the Problem Symptoms Table, refer back to the table and proceed to the next step. Refer to PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE .

    NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    OK → See step   8
