Smile I See Lights!!

Yesterday en route to my favorite weekend haunt I had several lights on my dash come on and continue to stay on. Any help with this would be appreciated. I imagine it is a sensor that can be replaced by my friend with good mechanical skills.

Symptom: TRAC Off, VSC & Check Engine lights

Vehicle: 2002 RX300

Thanks!

Monica

welcome to forum MonicaT. You need to check your car with Obd reader and get the codes and let us know. You get free code read by autozone store in your area. Thanks.

could it be the same Brake sensor switch and/or a tail light bulb that isn't installed correctly (also wrong bulb is a symptom). I suggest it cause it is something that happens on the rx330.

No, those would indicate through the brake and bulb warning lights, not the trio of lights that give the "check engine" indication. Also, as described in another recent thread, OBDII (2nd generation on-board diagnostics) readers are not very expensive to purchase too.
