Hi! I have the same problem with my LS400 now, where you able to fix yours?

That exact same thing happened to me. what i did was i had to take all the inner door pannels of and there was a clip that had broken or slipped off. its basically a metal hanger that connects the inner door handle to the latch in the door.

I found an online tutorial of how to take the door apart. mine is a 1990 so it wouldnt help with the 2001.

i ended up just taking some zip ties and tying it back together. now it works perfect.

it was a pain in the butt to roll down the window every time.

hope that helps.

i believe that was the link. someone posted it in this forum awhile ago, thats how i found it. but it appears to be under construction.
