There are photos and instructions for a similar 96 LS at the bottom of this thread --> http://us.lexusownersclub.com/forums/index...957&hl=mute

If that doesn't fix the problem you might need to unplug the handset and/or cradle. The phone cradle plugs into one or more connectors under the vent you see with the arm rest is raised.

There was more than one phone system available in the 93-up LS400 -- a fixed phone and a portable phone. I've only seen the fixed phones and don't know what you would find in your trunk if you have a portable Lexus phone.

One more thing ... if you feel the need for a newer phone kit such as a Bluetooth kit for a portable phone, there is an audio system mute terminal in the drivers side phone connector under the center console. If fact, it is possible that a defective handset or cradle is grounding this mute pin and that the problem is not with the phone module in your trunk. But disconnect the phone module in the trunk per the instructions first to see if that takes care of the problem.
