My Lexus GS 300 1998 has succumbed to a problem recently. I had initially thought it was as a result of the cold weather but now I'm thinking there's something more sinister behind it...
Symptoms:-
ABS light on
VSC light on
VSC off light on
Red Brake light on
and then when the warning lights are on, there is also a very high pitched continuous beep from the dash, at first this would stop and the lights would switch off after a short while when the car was warm but this morning it stayed on even after the car had got warm.... and now is constant.
The brakes sometimes work OK, other times they become very stiff and the pedal cannot be pressed all the way down, the brake seems to work but it is very laboured.
I have read some old posts saying it may be the electronic master cylinder? any help would be very much appreciated!!! is it worth keeping or slinging?
