    Tried it with a 14ga wire, too heavy a wire. Drop a few strands out. Still nothing even then...

    I went to get an on/off toggle switch and found one that was pre wired @ O'Realies. The wires fit perfect and where just long enough. Just out the wires in and flip the switch.

    Did it after work. Took all of 2 minutes to complete. Anyone had it kick back on after a successful reset? @Crom how in the world did you know this? Have a buddy that works at Toyota or what? Dealership wanted $175 so thanks!

    Mine acted up a little more after doing this. I think it's critical to have a propper alignment and be on completely flat ground with the wheels perfectly straight when doing the reset.

    The same shit everyone else has.
    I did, but it was only once. Pushed the truck hard through a down hill turn with new tires up front. Tread block caught the mudflap and kicked the VSC on.

    Has anyone had the dealership do the recalibration, if so have they had the issue return?
    Just curious, i did the fix, however it happened again
    Super frustrating.
    Is this a problem on the 3rd gen?
    Also does the tundra have this same issue?
    Thanks
