ChaosOrion Posted July 26, 2004 Posted July 26, 2004 Ok, I posted a thred last week about a strange loud noise coming from behind the dash/steering. It happened sparadically, and stopped. Well this week that noise returned. This time the noise was accompanied by some electrical problems: While driving on a 3-Hr drive, the radio started intermittantly cutting out, lights and musis, then I started hearing the noise (like airblowing inside a pipe) about 2 minutes later the VCS, ABS, BRAKE, and VCSoff Lights all lite-up and the VSC beeper tone came on constantly for about 3 minutes. The car braked Fine, accelerated fine, shifted fine, steering fine, while the lights and buzzer were going off, then about 2 or 3 minutes into it the lights all turned off the buzzer turned off, and the car kept driving for another 1-1/2 hours. The next day on the return trip, the same problem occured 2 more times. I hooked up an ODBII scanner, and received no error codes. Any Ideas?
GuyTelefunken Posted July 27, 2004 Posted July 27, 2004 Next step. the Lexus scan tool. There is a good posibility that there are codes in the computer that OBDII cannot read.
ChaosOrion Posted July 28, 2004 Author Posted July 28, 2004 Now, is that only through the dealer, or can the "Lexus" scan tool be gotten somehow else? Thanks for the reply BTW :-)
