What is the vsc light?

The VSC (Vehicle Stability Control) light is a warning indicator on the dashboard of a vehicle that alerts the driver when there is a potential issue with the vehicle's stability control system. The VSC system helps to prevent skidding and loss of control during sudden maneuvers or slippery road conditions by automatically applying brakes to individual wheels and reducing engine power.

When the VSC light is illuminated, it typically means that there is a malfunction or problem with the stability control system. This could be due to a variety of issues, including a faulty sensor, low brake fluid, a problem with the ABS system, or a damaged wheel speed sensor.

It is important to address the issue causing the VSC light to come on, as a malfunctioning stability control system can compromise the safety and handling of the vehicle. It is recommended to have the vehicle inspected by a professional mechanic to diagnose and repair the problem.
