lancecurran Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 2000 LX 470. My trailer running lights stoped working last year. A month ago I went to put the trailer on and now the flasher / break / turn lights are not working at the trailer plug. I placed a test ligh on all three to a good ground and nothing. I read in other listings about a controler box behind back left pannel. I pulled that off and did not find any control box. Can anyone please help, I need to tow a trailer asap. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molocka12 Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 I do not know if this will help but on my 97 LX 450 the box is in the back passenger side panel. I purchase a new box from Lexus for about $70 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dougjohn2 Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 It can't be all that mysterious. Open the panel, find the wires and follow them up. You'll find the control box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erupert Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 It can't be all that mysterious.Open the panel, find the wires and follow them up. You'll find the control box. ← The box is located behind the left rear taillight assembly. Take of the taillight and it will be down in the body cavity. It can be replaced with an aftermarket one from an auto parts store with no problem. Changed mine several years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
