SOURCE: LS430 check VSC light on after check engine light on
My car (06 GS430) began giving me more frequent "Check VSC" warnings. (Code P0455 in my case. Really glad I bought that OBDII tool--resetting the codes is a snap!)
I knew that a loose gas cap could cause this, so normally I just give it a twist and it tightens. Now I found that no matter how many "clicks" I tightened the gas cap, it would not cinch down snug. The lightest turn the opposite way would open it.
I was all set to head over to CarQuest for a replacement filler cap. But I thought I'd inspect mine first just to see why it stopped holding. Upon inspection, I saw that what holds the cap in place is compression of the rubber O-ring at the back of the cap, which compresses against the filler neck. That apparently was no longer happening.
I carefully removed the O-ring from the cap--using screwdrivers to lift it over the edge of the groove it sits in. Like removing a bike tire from the rim--work your way around. Then I cut a strip of electrical tape about 10" long, and 1/4" wide. I wound this into the curved groove where the O-ring normally sits, just to build up a little thickness. Put the O-ring back in place. Done.
Now the cap tightens like it's supposed to, and thus far, it has stopped the VSC error codes. Don't know if it will fix your issue or not, Good luck.

you should take your car to a shop where they will use and ob2 connector which will give you specifics on why the code has come up...you can also buy an ob2 connector at a store and try it yourself but it would probably be cheaper to take it to a shop

you will need to drive about 50 miles till the computer checks the system since it was reset. Your check engine light may come back again, if it does run a vacum test..

sounds to me like you better find another dealer or possibly an auto electric dealer they should have done it right the first time
SOURCE: door locks and power window
Just did this procedure I got from coloradofans.com forums:
"any type of power/voltage change
seems to trigger this issue
The most common symptom is power
locks fail and only the driver window quits, however that is on the
extended cab.
Steps to fix and it works every time.
take
door panel off driver's door
Disconnect the wiring attached to window
and power lock control unit
disconnect battery cables
connect
the negative to the positive cable(((NO BATTERY CONNECTED)))
This
will act to short residual voltage in the system
5 minutes later
place
the key in the ignition and turn to the run position
connect the
wiring to the window/lock controller
connect the negative cable to
the battery
then the positive
open drivers side door
turn key
to the off position((do not remove yet)) you should get a series of
dings through speakers telling you the key is still in the ignition
once
it begins dinging pull the key out and you should hear the door lock
solenoids trigger and the windows should work." - Coloradofans.com forums
