How do I reset the warning light that tells you when a bulb is out on your license plate

I had this on my ES330 and spent a year trying to solve it. I was driving away from work and my friend yelled at me to stop. He said my upper brake light in the back window was out. I replaced the bulb, and the rear light error went away. It is easy to fix the light unit slides off to the left and lifts up. It takes a small capless bulb. Let me know okay.

DCC and Dome light are draining the battery in 1999 Lexus rx300. Can I drive my car with those two fuses taken out?

well the service manual covers both. dcc means ( normal phantom drains, all computer that need and have memory this is memory power) the car is shipped with no DCC fuse. dome light well try it , in drive way then around the block. be brave or buy the book. the dome lamp that does no glow is not draining any batter ever sure bad door switches sure, my cars all have, dome disable switch covered fully in the users guide, (lost that?) lots of things can do the phantom drain even a bad alternator the drain is on DCC or is on the fuses marked hot all the time , vast things on that too. best is use an ammeter and not guess key off battery cable amps below 0.050amps or 50mA if above that much that is called a phantom drain then we pull all fuses, 1 by 1 to see if current falls to spec sure DDC sure dome and gee 25 more use on bat + hot all time bus. when found the same book tells you all things on that fuse even 10 or 20 things that must be pulled to prove they are not bad. not guessing or be wrong 25 + times. or more. learn to use an ammeter or pay those that do. toss coin.

How remove glove compartment on 2007 lexus ls460

To remove the glove compartment on a 2007 Lexus LS460, you will need to first open the compartment. Then, you will need to locate the mounting screws that hold the compartment in place. These screws are usually located on the sides or bottom of the compartment. Once you have found the screws, use a screwdriver to remove them. After the screws have been removed, the glove compartment should be able to be gently pulled away from the dashboard. If the compartment is stuck, you may need to carefully pry it away using a flat tool like a screwdriver or a trim panel tool. Be careful not to damage the dashboard or the glove compartment as you remove it. Once the glove compartment has been removed, you can access the area behind it for maintenance or repair.

2005 Lexus RX330 had a total loss of power while driving about 35 mph. Engine, headlights, power steering, brakes all went out. it starts back up. but will die within 10 seconds. What is it?

I needs service,get some?
  • immo lamp not happy on dash/ engine Immo can cut spark 1 t010 seconds from start. bad key (ignition)
  • fuses blown
  • scan the PCM yet to see all those DTC errors?
  • low fuel pressure.
  • spark plugs never changed (they are bad 17 years old)
  • head lamps dead is , alternator bad. (as battery dies)
engine there new. best is diagnose HL head lamps dead. they work bright key on and key off, tell more about HL actions first. does the starter motor sound strong each time you starter the engine ? when it runs for 10 seconds ,during the run does the IP cluster lamp glow (charge/battery.GEN) ,yes ALT is dead. or a battery cell shorted.

My 2003 Lexus ES 300 has 131k miles transmission does engage in all gears, but while driving (even from a dead stop) Tran shifting gears is rough ???

Check Transmission Fluid level. If that doesn't work, you need the dealership, or a transmission specialist. A high grade scan tool computer can diagnose with engine running, but can also record what is happening whilst the car is being driven. It could be the TCM or it could be shift solenoids. I have a 2005 ES330.

2008 Lexus IS 250 - Car stuck in 3rd Gear, Slipping when Accelerating

check fuses first. check tranny AFT fluid levels is can hot, idle+ park. well that is super hard stress on that transmission it is stuck in limp home mode.\ do not force it to slip or the clutch pack disks burn up.$$$$$$ 2 kind tranny uses here A760H Automatic Transmission AWD A960E Automatic Transmission IS RWD not scanning the OBD2 (USA)? DLC scan port means you will not know why it fails. and YOU DID, thanks. yes old cars what automatics fail at 200k miles or less and are very expensive to repair,l zillion parts inside it to fail is why, and leaks inside but lets do you a list real service manual quotes. P2714. (the 7 means trans as do all 7s here. shift solenoid valve SLT ECM detects a malfunction on SLT (ON side) according to the speed sensors reading wrong. There are 2 shift solenoids inside the box, SL1 and 2. both valves are bad or pump pressure low (PRNDL test with hand gauge) or transmission has lots of internal seal leaks. P0766
  1. SL2 stuck ON malfunction or brake control valve malfunction*:
  2. Shifting to 5th and 6th gears is impossible.
  3. The ECM determines there is a malfunction when the following conditions are both met.(2-trip detection logic)
    1. When the ECM directs the gearshift to switch to 5th gear, the actual gear is shifted to 4th.
    2. When the ECM directs the gearshift to switch to 6th gear, the actual gear is shifted to 4th.
P0776,same as above C1201 (my guess is tranny stuck on limphome PCM reports it this why) If a malfunction in the engine control system is detected, the operations of VSC and TRAC are prohibited by the fail safe function. When the signals from the engine are input normally, the fail safe is cancelled and the DTC is not stored. C1241.(car battery low below 9.7v due to long cranking? or? This DTC is stored when the IG1 terminal voltage deviates from the DTC detecting condition due to a malfunction in the power supply or charging circuit such as the battery or alternator circuit, etc. is ABS lamp on , or charge/battery fail lamp on in cluster/

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.
