Hey buddy, if that check VSSC system
0:02
warning just lit up your Toyota Camry's
0:04
dashboard like a Christmas tree, I get
0:06
it. It's frustrating when your car's
0:08
stability control throws a fit out of
0:10
nowhere. The fix? A dead simple one
0:13
minute reset using the button right
0:15
there in your Camry. No scanner, no shop
0:17
visit needed. It'll have that light off
0:19
before your coffee is cold. Okay, so
0:22
first things first, park your Camry on a
0:25
flat spot, engine off, and throw it in
0:27
park with the parking brake on. You
0:29
won't need any tools for this. It's all
0:31
handled by the switches inside your car.
0:33
Just spot that VSC off button. It's
0:36
usually down by the shifter or on the
0:37
center console with the icon of a car
0:40
skidding a bit. Now, press and hold that
0:42
VSC button for about 3 seconds till the
0:44
VSC off and TRAC off lights pop on in
0:48
your dash. That means your Camry's
0:50
stability and traction systems are
0:52
paused, like giving them a quick
0:54
breather. Release the button and those
0:56
lights should wink out right away. Fire
0:58
up the engine next and let your Camry
1:00
idle for 10 seconds or so. Shift into
1:02
drive and take it for a gentle spin.
1:04
Nothing crazy, just around the block at
1:05
about 25 mph for a minute. The system's
1:08
smart. It'll recalibrate itself on the
1:10
move. And poof, that warning's history.
1:13
What year Camry are you wrestling with
1:14
right now anyway? Drop it in the
1:16
comments. Might help spot if it's a
1:18
rainy day glitch or something else.
1:20
Honestly, this resets a lifesaver for
1:22
those false alarms. I remember fixing my
1:24
cousin's 2008 Camry last month. It
1:26
happened after she hit a puddle on the
1:28
highway and the sensors in the wheels
1:30
got a little confused. We did this exact
1:32
trick in her driveway and she was back
1:34
to smooth sailing without missing her
1:36
kid's soccer game. Common mistake. Folks
1:38
forget to drive that short bit after the
1:40
car's ECU module needs the roadfield to
1:42
lock it in. If the light sticks around
1:44
after that, it could be a wheel speed
1:45
sensor acting up under your Camry's
1:47
brakes. Worth a quick scan then, but for
1:50
90% of these, the button reset nails it.
1:53
Safety note, always do this parked since
1:55
messing with stability controls while
1:57
rolling isn't smart. So, to recap, hold
2:00
the VSC button till the lights show,
2:02
release, start her up, and drive easy
2:05
for a minute. Your Camry is back in
2:07
business, stable as ever. If this just
2:08
saved you a headache, smash that like
2:10
button and subscribe to Car Justify.
