Driving uphill in the snow. Car was very sluggish then brake locked up in three out of four tires locked up. ABS light, VSC light and VSC off light all came on.
Faulty abs module.
Could it be the master brake cylinder? I saw three other complaints of the same thing happening and it was that?
its possible, but if the brake cylinder wasn't releasing, wouldn't all 4 brakes lock up? I guess you could have bad brakes on one wheel. Dunno, but would it be feasable to loosen up your brake lines and see if it would release the pressure, then rebleed the system?

SOURCE: brake vsc off and abs lights are on
Krafty930 with brake, VSC off and ABS lights on. You share a common problem with many Toyota owners. My 2003 Sequioa has the same issue. There is no solution. Dealers will replace the air sensors and then the computer all for $2,500 - $3,500. This will not solve the issue. The internet has thousands of complaints re this problem, but Toyota has disowned the issue and declined resolution, even for vehicles under warranty. The lights drive me crazy and I still don't know if there is a functional problem, a wiring problem or a computer problem with the VSC system. To date, I have learned of no reports relating this problem to vehicular deaths, so I really am not holding my breath waiting for Toyota to provide a solution. Sorry that you share this problem, but perhaps my response will help to stop you from "spinning your wheels" too much trying to resolve this issue.
