Hello. Those three lights are all designed to illuminate when you have an issue with the electronic sensors on the engine. To properly identify the reason for the lights being on, you will need to get your vehicle hooked up to a scan-tool. AutoZone provides this service for free. Get the car scanned, and get the codes stored in the memory of the car's computer back to us for further assistance.

How to disable trac and VSC in highlander hybrid 2006 model

Disabling the light doesn't fix the problem, you should have this diagnosed by connecting a diagnostic code reader that can communicate with the traction control system, then go from there.

What does vsc stands for when light comes on and what threat does it have on 2004 Toyota highlander

I believe VSC in the warning lights is Variable Speed Controller. It should be dealing with the traction control. If that is malfunctioning your traction control system isn't working properly. essentially what this does is automatically control how your drive train applies power to the drive wheels in order to maintain control of the vehicle on the different terrains it is driven.

What causes a toyota highlander VCS warning

When your VSC (Vehicle Stability Control) light comes on, it means your car has been forced to take evasive action to avoid a dangerous situation. For example, if you're driving on an icy or wet, slippery road, and take a turn too sharp or accelerate too quickly, the vehicle will automatically reduce acceleration or apply pressure to the brakes to prevent the car from losing control. In this situation the VSC indicator light will light up to alert you that the action was taken, and remind you to slow down - or to be extra careful. Be safe!
