  1. My 2006 SC430 was not running, and after much diagnosis, I decided I needed to install a new engine wiring harness. I just completed that project, and now the engine won't turn over. Battery has a fresh charge. Always possible I did something wrong installing the new harness, but I don't think so, because I laid the new one over the old one and removed/replaced each connector one at a time from the end back to the ECM. Prior to replacing the harness, the engine would crank, run for just a half second or so, then quit. It set error codes for both the camshaft position sensor and crankshaft position sensor, but I replaced both of those with no change. That's when I decided the wiring harness needed changing (the car had been wrecked, and some of the wires had been damaged - but it has run fine since rebuilding until this non-start problem arose). Could the anti-theft not be recognizing the key because the battery has been disconnected for a while? The battery in the key fob doesn't seem to be dead, because the red LED illuminates when I press a button, but it will not lock/unlock doors or trunk. Thanks for any advice you can offer.
  2. Can someone please tell me where the VSS is located on the '09 ES350? I can't find it in the repair manual, either on the device location pages or on the wiring diagrams. I have a P0500 code, and want to locate it to test function and wiring. Also, can you describe a device test procedure, and/or point me to a location for such a procedure in the repair manual? Many thanks!
  3. My retractable top had been working fine until yesterday, when it suddenly went into a mode where it will advance only one step or one partial step in the operation sequence, then stop. Re-pressing or continuing to press the top operation button produces no results. I discovered by experimentation that if I switch the ignition key off, then back on, then press the top button, it will again advance all or part of one step in the up/down operation sequence. I tried disconnecting the battery, thinking perhaps this would reset the ECU, but no change. Any experience or suggestions would be very much appreciated.
