Default another VSA thread

Picked up an 07 with a kraftwerks s/c and reflashed ECU a few weeks ago.

It's been fine until just a few days ago when the VSA/! light came on. ABS light does not come on at all and there are no stored codes on my Scangauge.
The thing that seems to be different than every other person's thread is that every time I shut the car off, the light goes away, but It comes back after a random amount of time. I've had it stay away for half a day, and other times come on a few seconds after I leave my driveway. I have not come up with a repeatable "cause" for the light to come on

I've been researching and come across the wheel alignment sensor issue but have not yet tried to recalibrate.

Looking for other possible solutions to try as well.

The steering wheel has a noticable 1-2 degree offset when "straight". Would that be enough? I've been driving the car for several weeks with no issue and even had the VSA kick in on a few cold mornings but everything operated as normal until now.

If the VSA light is on, you have a code. Your Scangauge is likely off protocol to the system and will not read it.

I assure you a code is there and a proper scanner will read it.

Besides bringing it to a dealership and or independent shop to get it scanned, what are our options in terms of purchasing a scanner that would read the code?

Any experience first hand off of this list:
