rocky2 Posted April 28, 2005 Share Posted April 28, 2005 Does anyone know if it’s normal for the RX 400 to shutoff if you stopped for a length of time. I pulled over on my street to talk to a neighbor about our new car. During what I guess was 15 minutes the engine came on two or three times. My guess was to briefly charge the batteries. At end of what I guess was 15 minutes the vehicle entirely shutoff. I restarted it right away. Only the battery seemed to be on. About 5 minutes later the car shut down again. I started the car and was able to drive it home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RX400h Posted April 28, 2005 Share Posted April 28, 2005 Did you leave the shift lever in Drive and your foot on the brake? Even though the brake lights are LEDs, they may draw enough juice to cause the startups you mention. I couldn't find anything in the manual about total shut downs and the most I have let the RX sit in Park without shutting down was about 10 minutes.
