20 Most Recent 2006 Lexus Is 250 - Page 9 Questions & Answers

Hello and welcome to FixYa!
What fuse was replaced? You may just have a system failure. As a first course of action, I strongly suggest that you remove the positive battery connector and let it sit for at least 5mins. before reconnecting it. This will reset the system and can get it back to it's normal operation.
Hope this helps and thank you for using FixYa! Have a good one!

If your connector has only two wires... A. It may not matter. B. Look at the connector for a different color clip inserted into it. Removing the clip should allow the piece that holds the wires to release, and maybe there is enough wire there for you to see which goes where.

Just remember how it goes together.

A dealer can tell you or simply see if they have a similar model on the lot, and ask to look under the hood.

the tcs can mean 2 things, 1 is the temperature colant switch, which is mostly located on top of the intake manifold, and sometimes close to the thermostat housing, this is based upon what type of vehicle it is, and the engine size. also unless your computer might be saying throttle control sensor, or switch. this switch should be located close to the throttle body area, after replacing or checking out the part, you can remove the light , either with a ob 2 scan tool, or disconnect the positive battery cable for about 1 minute, then reconnect it back up, light should now be out.

Check lamp usually means it is either running too rich or too lean.

Bulbs are usually not interchangeable as the wrong type won't fit. Find the bulb type by removing one of the old ones. replace both of the low beams at the same time. If you buy two of the same variety and they are the right bulb number (H7 is a style of low beam) they are okay to use, Change in pairs so beam color and bulb life are the same.

You have lost your valet key, ask your lexus dealer for a replacement

check power steering fluid and make sure fluid is at proper level. Check for leaks in the P/S system...any hoses leaking?

Good Luck,
Mike...

Hi


Thanks for using FixYa. Hook up a meter and check the voltage. If it drops below 8 volts then it means that there is certain a problem. Please also check the fuses under the hood. One of them might have blown. The other thing is that you should get it reprogrammed. If the door button on the door didn't cause the doors then it means that the problem is not with your keys. Also try locking the doors with the switch on the passenger side. If still the issue persists, then there is a problem with the battery. Please remove the battery from the vehicle and have it tested at an auto parts store if the vehicle is not under warranty otherwise take it to the dealer to avoid voiding your warranty.


Please do accept the solution if the issue is resolved or else revert for further assistance.


Thanks
