Yes the ECM can indeed cause these issues, if they (the shop who diagnosed it) replace it and it does no cure the problem then they just bought you a new ECM as they are not returnable.

SOURCE: Trac light and Check engine light came on how to FIX?

Here's the best way I know to fix this problem (as you said:) without paying. Make friends with someone who works at a professional garage. Get them to scan the computer and gather the codes. Or you could marry into the family of someone that works in the industry. You need to see which code was saved in the computer ( and there are MANY possibilities) before you can have any idea what to do next. Try to look for a coupon in the mailers that come to your home or in the local papers. Many shops will offer a special price for scanning your car's PCM (comp.) so they can get you in the door and make you a customer. You should be able to get this done for 40 to 60 bucks depending on where you live. It takes a few minutes, but some shops charge a full Labor Hour for the service. It's a Lexus, not a VW Beetle, so the price of ownership includes maintenance, you dig?

this could be a starter or the enigtion swicth yes if you crank the key to long it will kill the battery.

SOURCE: I have 99 LS400 . Last night i parked my car with start engine for about 10mins. Suddenly the car sound system began to malfunction. Malfunction in a way as the volume of radio began to come out somet

TAKE TO NEAREST ADVANCE OR AUTOZONE PARTS STORE. ASK THEM TO CLEAR CODES WITH THERE COMPUTER. IT IS A FREE SERVICE THEY OFFER. I ALWAYS TIPPED THE GUY THAT DOES IT, CONSISERINGMOST REPAIR SHOPS CHARG BETWEEN $125-175.00 JUST TO TELL YOU WHATS WRONG.
