check your fuel pump.and air filter

this all depends on what kind of car we are talking about there could be two or three,

It depends. If you are talking about the RED oil pressure warning light, the problem is either that your engine has oil pressure problems or it has a defective oil pressure sending unit. If it is actual oil pressure problems, major engine repair or replacement will be necessary to fix it.

I am not familiar with Lexus, however braking systems are usually the same for all cars.
I first suggest purchasing a service repair manual for your vehicle that will give you step by step instructions. Also, I suggest calling a dealer (mechanic, or experienced Lexus mechanic to see is if this is a procedure that can be done at home). Some newer, "classy" cars are designed differently and require special tools and/or procedures for repairs such as this.
There are bleeder valves (zirk fittings) on the backside of the brake hub. It will require (usually) an 8 millimeter opened end wreng (line wrench if you have access to one); otherwise a regular open end will work.
Also, you will need a second person to pump the brakes; you loosen the bleeder valve until fluid comes out and no air. Do this for each side (front and back) until no air is released. In addition, make sure you have extra brake fluid, as you will need to make sure the resevoir is full when finished, and may need to add between bleeding each side.
Follow these instruction for each side, then take the car for a short drive (don't go too far from place of service; home, shop etc). Then bring it back and bleed the same way one more time.
If you have any questions, please let me know.
