ahnorman Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 One of the heated seat controls has a burned out bulb. Has anyone had to change these? How'd you go about it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The G Man Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 Its probably a LED, you might need to replace the circuit board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kgerry Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 if it burned out it's probably a lamp... LED's very rarely go out in my experience...... i still doubt any parts would be available frtom Lexus, you probably just replace the switch.... but any local electronics shop or radio shack-ish place should stock both lamps and LED's....

denslexusgx470 Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 I have a feeling you might need to change the switch. Sometimes the dealers dont sell just the bulb. I know when the rear defogger on the Odyssey burned out a few years back they sold me a whole new switch all because they didn't sell just the bulb behind it.

megabrat1 Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 just replace the l.e.d.,it is available at any electronics store, easy to replace as well. just pop out the switch pop off the cover of the switch and remove the little green rubber hoodie on the l.e.d., then pull the wires out of their little grooves and voila. reverse the order with new bulb.

momo2000 Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Hey, thanks! I purchased a used '03 about a year ago, and that was the only thing wrong. I've wanted to replace it, but haven't taken the time to investigate. I "stumbled" on your post, and will go do it now that you have done all the "investigation". Just wanted to say thanks!!!

ALL the switches have little bulbs that are replaceable. Some have green caps, some dont. I had detailer blow out a bunch on me with liquid. I got all the part numbers, and bought them from Lexus. They were all very easy to replace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H MAN Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 My drivers side heated seat light is out but switch is operable. Dealership told me I need a whole new switch $250. I refuse to pay that just for a friggin light. I will drive with it dark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
