How My Rewire Tried To Trick Me By Turning Off VSC Light Without Fixing VSC by Greene66: 11:38am On Nov 17, 2016 |
Good day nlers. So my vehicle has been displaying this VSC and TRAC OFF warning lights for a while. I know the Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) isn't working properly which is why the light is on and the TRAC is off which is why the light is also on. Suddenly my ABS had a problem and the ABS light went on. The vehicle couldn't move into transmission. So I used the emergency way to move it to my mechanic. The mechanic fixed the ABS and the light went off. But he couldn't fix the VSC.. do you know what this man did? He used something to block/off the VSC and TRAC light and told me my vehicle is now perfect. My vehicle is perfect and "Check Engine" light is still on and my TRAC is OFF so the light should ON not off So I suspected foul play and waited till night and looked at the dashboard closely and noticed this crazy man smuggled a small piece of paper into my dashboard to block off the lights from showing. And collected my 50k for ABS and VSC I unscrewed the dashboard and removed the paper myself and both VSC and TRAC lights started showing again. Can you imagine that? That is why Nigeria is where it is... Please take your vehicles to authorized dealers and engineers only. Not those oluwole and Owolabi mechanics. 16 Likes 2 Shares |

tolulinks: ABS is not a single part, it is a system, it comprises of wheels speed sensors, a brake pump, an electronic break booster in some cases, an ECU, which is connected to other ECUS. The common part to fail is the wheel speed sensor. Yes parts can be replaced and ABS fixed. |

I have had almost same experience but this is with the check engine light. After several attempt to turn off the check light to no avail. The mechanic just removed the check bulb. I got to notice months after cause normally if you turn on the ignition all the dash lights should come on. 6 Likes |
