frodo1028 Posted October 8, 2006 Share Posted October 8, 2006 I have another dash light issue. My 92 LS400 had a problem about a month ago where my left brake light stopped working. When I went to check the bulb, I found that the entire tail light assembly was half full of water and the tail light holder was rusted out. The rust caused bad electrical contact which made the light fail. I cleaned off the rust, replaced the bulb, empied the water out and sealed the tail light assembly to keep water out in the future. Now the brake light works. However, the little amber light on the dash that warns that you have a burned out tail light is still on and I cannot get it to go off. Any ideas?? Thanks Frodo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Frodo Sorry... messed up on my typing... My guess is the electronic module monitoring your tail-light status is out. Its located in the trunk - upper left side (white box in my 1993 LS400). My unit went out a couple weeks ago. Lexus will charge $350 for the module...suggest you find a used part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
