Hi Guys,

Just a little snippet of info I thought I’d share with you all on my Hilux KUN26.

So I just fitted a new snorkel to our truck which required removing the air box with the mass-air flow sensor. I had to move the truck with it disconnected. After re-fitting the air box etc I fired her up again, and ever since I've had this annoying flashing VSC-OFF warning light along with the amber Engine warning lights have stayed on the dashboard.

Dashboard Flashing VSC Light

Did a bit of research and I found one suggestion worked perfectly without going to the main dealer for a reset costing ££££££… Here’s what I did:

  • In Park or Hand brake on
  • Hold in the 'VSC-OFF' button (usually located in front the gear stick area – it’s the vehicle with skid lines - OFF button)
  • Whilst holding in the button start up the truck
  • Release the 'VSC- OFF' button
  • Hey presto – job done – no more lights!!


Now I’m not saying this will work for all issues but certainly did on my truck and has been fine ever since.

Cheers Guys
