Push and hold the button in until you here a beep or it flashes. There may be two or three sets of preprogramables for you FM stations. Press the FM button a couple of times to see , if it scrolls up thru FM1, FM2 and so forth then you have more than 5 FM programmable buttons. To get a the manual free, register online at www.lexus.com under the owners section. Then you can request an owners manual and a supplemental owners manual free. Or, you can call 1-800-25-LEXUS, press option #4, then request the same from the customer service rep you speak to. You may need your VIN on the phone. steviej Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make sure you hold the button in until you hear a beep, or it will not take the new preset. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise sounds like something is wrong with the unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steviej Posted April 11, 2005 Share Posted April 11, 2005 you could try disconnecting the battery to lose all the presets and start from scratch. or wait until you have the manual in hand. steviej Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leave the negative battery wire disconnected for at least 10 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
