How does the Lexus 92 LS400 air conditioner work?
My 92 LS400 has a water flow control valve that is actuated in synchronization with the (reheat/remix) blend door. I guess the LEXUS beancounters got control before the RX series came along. Oh, and don’t forget to take the system out of recirculate long enough to purge the HOTTER atmosphere within the cabin. Then return the system to recirculate.

This occurs because one of the wheel sensors is dirty or malfunctioning which sets off the VSC light. This is not a long term fix but at this point it works short term.
