Some Lexus RX300 owners report experiencing issues when the VSC and Check Engine lights illuminate, which can indicate various problems including tire-related issues and faulty sensors. Common causes for these warning lights include faulty wheel speed sensors triggering the VSC light and bad oxygen sensors activating the Check Engine light. Additionally, some owners have noted that malfunctions in the vehicle's stability control system may lead to a "Check VSC" message. To troubleshoot, owners are advised to check tire pressure and condition, reset the VSC system by pressing the VSC button for three seconds, and seek inspection from a mechanic if the lights persist. Many Lexus owners have found that resolving issues such as a bad oxygen sensor or faulty wheel speed sensors has led to the lights being extinguished. It is recommended to address any potential tire issues and consult a mechanic for accurate diagnosis and resolution if these warning lights appear.
