Car won't start. What is the problem?
It could be many things, but as it happened so soon after the timing belt replacement, I would ask them to come and look at it under the repair warranty.
Issues like this can only be diagnosed by computer diagnosis.

Code 1135 1155 and new sensors in 1999 Lexus Rx 300
OXY SENSOR IS SHORTED(was)AF (named by Lexus oddly)THE FUSE BLOWS IF SHORTED DID IT? 25amps blew up?AND WHICH RELAY, EXACTLY.both p1135/55 means , B1S1 and B2S1 both front sensor heaters are dead but gee wiz with relay pulled sure they are. dead.AF heater relay runs both those 2 front O2 sensorsand if either of the 2 short. fuse marked AF heater fuse blows 25AMPSThe heaters are spec at 5 ohms so each heater uses 3amps 6 total paired, and 25amp fuse does not blow.but if the 2 heaters B1S1 and B2S1, short the fuse blows. so bad 02 front sensor. or wires to them melted or cut in halfwires on O2 , with clamps missing allow wires to touch 2000f header pipes(exhaust ) and melt and burn up, and then short.or even burn open.or put in the wrong 2 front 02 sensors or used the cheap ones$20 that are hand wired, and wired up wrong.. (done lots but not wrong yet, I'm careful) I run BOSCH only, and or OEM fitand easy to pop in, the Bosch web site has the Ecatalog to get the correct ones. from them.

P2237 O2 sensor 1 bank 1 intermittent check engine.TRC light on
This sounds deeper than a fuse. If you have access to a professional scan tool, monitor the voltage of the sensor in question. If there is no movement, or choppy movement, especially upon acceleration. If there is any discrepancy, replace the sensor.
If you do not have access to a professional scan tool, check for power and ground at the connector using a DMM (Digital Multimeter).
Once those are verified, you will need to backprobe the connector while connected to the sensor, and verify that the signal wire is giving the proper voltage. This, unfortunately, will require a lab scope, which most people outside of a shop would not have access to.
It only gets more technical from there, which will most likely require some diagnostic time at a professional shop.

I have a 2006 Lexus LS 430 and cannot open the trunk
A trunk lid is secured into position using a latch and striker similar to those used for the hood and doors. The striker is a U-shaped piece of metal fixed to the trunk lid. The latch is a mechanism that hooks around striker and holds it tightly until the latch release lever is pulled. Latch release levers can be actuated electronically via a solenoid and switch or mechanically via a cable and handle. The most common failure item with electronic systems is the solenoid actuator which is typically integrated into the latch itself. For manual release systems the most common failure items is the cable which tends to snap internally, especially if there is a problem with the latch such as binding. Accessing the trunk area to replace the necessary parts can be tricky if the trunk won't open; in these cases I'd recommend trying to open the trunk with the key (if it has a lock cylinder) otherwise the back seats will need to be laid down or removed in order to get to gain access.

Wher is number 6 cylinder on 1997 Lexus lx450
If yours is fitted with the 4.5 litre 'inline' straight 6 engine, cylinder number 6 is easy to find. Stand with the belts and pulleys nearest to you and the Transmission (Gearbox) furthest away from you. Number ONE is nearest to you then number 2 and so on. That means Number 6 is the cylinder furthest away from you.

Hi, I have a Lexus 220D on 57 (UK September 2007 March 2008) plate. I can't open the boot!
Question edited for clarity. We are a North American website.
.... and a British girl at that :>D Your vehicle looks like my 2005 ES330. I am British but live in Canada.
I was thinking there might be a fuse but I don't see one

Then I remembered... I think you will find there is a button in the glove box that disconnects the power to the boot open button by the driver's knee..
Another thought is that the boot rubber seals really stick tight. When you use the key and hear the click, pull up really hard.
Finally, the rear seat centre armrest has access to the boot on mine. Shine a torch in there and pull the emergency release lever on the underside of the boot lid. You may have to fashion a loop of rope on the end of a wooden dowel to reach it, or open out a wire hanger.
