Default Please Help: 2001 LS430 VSC Light only on and nothing else

Hi Every One
I read almost all the posts regarding VSC image and Check VSC message coming on. Most reported that they had either replaced something or Check Engine Light coming on or ABS.

In my case, I was driving the car off our driveway when the VSC message came on. There was no work done on the car for at least past two months which was an oil change. There was no other light or error message. All that came was the VSC image, the triangle with exclamation and Check VSC message.

I do not see any changes in the driving of the car as well.

I would greatly appreciate any and all help. With these bad financial times, I simply can not afford to take the car to a dealer. I bought this car about six months ago. Thank you so much

You may just have an issue with the VSC system, the first thing you should do is try jumping the ts and cg pins on the OBD2 connector, make sure you use the right pins from that post, the first picture is incorrect, the post from fyounes is correct I've used it and it works, go through the test mode see if you can clear it and see if it stays off. If it comes back on, you have another issue, I think I remember seeing somewhere that gunked up abs rings on one of the wheels can cause issues, not sure if it applies but it's worth a look.
