2004 Lexus RX330 TRAC OFF and VSC lights O2 Sensors P0171/P0174 System too lean Bank 1&2 FIXED

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

The Check engine light with the TRAC OFF and VSC lights would not go off with a new gas cap, nor unplugging the negative terminal from the battery. So after purchasing a few tools and a Mass airflow sensor with both the Up and Down stream O2 Sensors, the problem was resolved and the GA emissions passed with no issues. Here's the links for the tools and sensors

    I've researched this for a few yrs. Ever since Toyota worked on my mother's 06 RX330 this has been a problem. Plus dumped over $700 into it trying to resolve. It's also a part of 04-05 recall that they refuse to honor in the 06. Ty for the video!

    Ha! Mine is a 2004 so I should have had them fix it. Oh well, I figured it out and now I know more!

    If you have check engine light and vsc light on, please check your tires pressure. I have two Lexus with the same problem when tire pressure overinflated. Tire pressure is located on driver side door. I finally figured this out. Nothing on KZread. Hope this helps anyone!!!

    I just bought them off Amazon, half the price of the auto parts store and worked perfectly. Make sure you get one for the pre cat and post cat as they have very different connection points.

    Didn't check to see if cruse worked during the lights but they were O2 sensors that were the cause so can't see them being linked together. But I've done a bunch of research and some people said that it was their gas cap that wasn't holding a seal as well as other said it was due to a vacuum leak in the main air intake. Some needed to get to the mass air flow sensor and clean it and they put it back together and it was fine. However, troubleshooting 101 sometimes requires us to simply take it apart and put it back together. By doing that, the loose bolt or screw that looks fine at a glance ends up being the problem gets solved simply by taking it off completely then knowingly putting it back with intention. Let me know how it works out

    I would but the ones I bought since this video aren't the same. I bought them on Amazon so just look up your car and make sure it fits your vehicle. If we could speak on the phone I'd be happy to help but what if do is go to a local car parts store and tell them what you need O2 sensors and they will tell you the parts. Then, go to Amazon and look them up.

    I have same 2004 rx330, I don’t have any lights on but when I scan using BlueDrive it keeps showing Oxygen Censor scan not complete , but Ixygen Sensor Heat scan is complete, do you think I need to replace the Oxygen sensor like you did?

    It's very hard to say what the issues are for sure at this age. I still drive my lexus rx330 everyday. Something new pops up once in a while but after I did the o2 sensors a ton of issues with the dash lights went away and the car seemed to have a tiny bit more power, which if the sensors were bad, would cause fuel air issues. Small other things to look out for is the gas cap. You would think it would make the computer go nuts but if yours is leaking air it will throw a code or 2. So in the end, it's a fairly easy repair and cheap parts so if you have high mileage and never replaced them, I'd do it. Also I'd replace the mass air flow unit as well. Let me know what you find

    When all them lights turned on on my 06rx330, i had to replaced my throttle body because i lost a siganal from gas pedal to throttle body.. since the tps is built into the throttle body. Solved the problem.. but i still noticed from time to time my abs. Vsc, trac off and that tire pressure light flashing would come on. But no check engine light tho. Do you Have any suggestion what to look into fixing it?

    It's funny but I think those lights come on for a million reasons. Basically I think when anything goes wrong, those lights all turn on. So many people have posted they had completely different issues but those lights came on just the same. 1st time for me was a leaking gas cap.

    P0171/P0174 system lean, actually is you have a vacumm leak in the emission system. Make sure the vacumm hose is connected correctly their is a diagram on the hood. I fix my P0171/P0174 problem. O2 sensor will give you a specific code just for that.

    Do you have the bluedriver? You can get them on Amazon for 100. Works on both iPhone and android. Reads the deep codes and even shows where to get the parts and links to support sites. Saved me thousands
