TexasLexus94 Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 Based on your club name, I imagine you are busy stripping the Lexus for all it is worth. You need to be careful, since if you remove the radio, the ECU also goes dead, and the car is worthless. Like you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TexasLexus94 Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 OK, I'll help you. Your Yankees just beat my Sox, so I was a little down. Removing the radio will not cause your Lexus to not operate. Basically, if your radio has a security code that was inputted by the owner, not the dealer, and you disconnect and remove the radio, you have to know the inputted code to get it to work later. You have 10 chances to input the correct code-otherwise the radio goes dead. No luck?- you have to go to a Lexus dealer, and they can "flash" the radio, and correct the dead radio. Costs $100-200. But it helps if you actually own the Lexus, they like to see the title. There's one other secret. But the Yankees stuck it to my Sox-and you. Best of luck.

TexasLexus94 Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 Hey, sorry. If you're installing a whole new system including radio, which I missed, you'll have no problem. The ECU could care less. Throw the old one away. Go Sox....best of luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
