SOURCE: VSC and Malfunction Indicator came on and stays on

When you say malfunction indicator , do you mean `check engine`` light.
These paired lights can indicate a change in engine air flow and fuel mixture. Try a fresh tank of premium fuel, but first a unscrew and re-screw the gas cap until it ratchets into place. The lights can be triggered by a loose gas cap, a fouled O2 sensor, and several other emission related problems including sticking throttle body components, etc.
This can sometimes be sprayed with carb cleaner inserted in the snorkle area of the air intake where teh snorkle meets the metal intake.

Testimonial: "Thanks for the reply, it was a loose gas cap once tightened it all cleared. This was very helpful."

After replacing a new battery on my 2004 RX330, car started good but the gas pedal does not work and engine and VSC light on. What do I have to do to solve this problem?

There must be a relearn after battery was replaced, usually there is a sequence you have to follow after you replace battery. check owners manual, or if you have a service manual it will be there for sure.

Lexus rx330 check engine with vsc light

Hello, these lights being on indicate a fault that affect both vehicle stability control and engine performance. In some cases, it could be a transmission related concern, but not in all.

However this can be very helpful

Make sure you are completely stopped. Put the car in park if you can.
Press and hold the VSC button for a few seconds.
The TRAC OFF and VSC OFF indicator light will come on. Both systems are now off.
Press the VSC button again. Both lights will turn off and the systems are now reengaged.

You can also check this out if you are having any problems with your smart key

What is the meaning of vfc in the 2005 rx 330 lexus

We are assuming that you are talking about the VSC (Vehicle Stability Control) and VSC OFF message.

Stability control systems are offered under the following names: On Lexus is called as Vehicle Dynamics Integrated Management (VDIM) with Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) and Traction Control (TRAC) systems.

It can mean a lot of things. Usually, it is an engine fault that leads to VSC cancellation as well. Scanning for actual fault codes would be a good start.

Hope this helps; also keep in mind that your feedback is important and I'll appreciate your time and consideration if you leave some testimonial comment about this answer.

Thank you for using Fixya, and have a nice day.

I changed the rear brakes and rotors on my Lexus rx330 and drove it for a day and the BRAKE(all red) light came on... I have Bled(sp?) the brakes in the proper order, took the brakes and rotors off again...

Did you check the brake fluid level? A low level might cause the light to come on.
If it's 1997 or newer, and then likely OBD2, take it to a local autozone or similar parts store. Most should scan and clear codes for free, hoping you will then buy parts from them.

Check engine and VSC lights are on.

Your light is on because the computer has detected a problem with the car. Take it to Autozone and they will scan it for free and they will let you know what is wrong.

2004 lexus rx330 what does vsc light indicate

VSC is Vehicle Stability Control. This is and electronic sensing which monitors and combines performance of braking, wheel slippage and handling, ect.
