I will take a better pic after the weekend.

Here

Just thought I would mention that I just replaced my factory 8" (Pioneer) with a 15" Tempest.

As far as changing the look of the factory deck, I like what I did. All the work was done by me and my Wife.

How do I attach a Pic?

Bill

No spacers, but the studs do not go all the way through the lug nut. I sorta thought this was wrong, but that is how I got it. My wife and I saw a set of chrome factory rims on a '98 GS (I think) that I wouldn't mind putting on, if I found a set. Maybe my rims are too thick, and I need longer studs. Any Idea where I could get them? I just keep buying stock Lexus studs.

Thanks,

Bill

Yea, I live in Northern Ontario, Canada. I don't know if it actually was corrosion, but I will pop the top on the old part to check.

Bill

No they are BBS rims. They have BBS lug nuts, but this is only happening on one side. I am confused!

I have broken a total of 8 wheel studs, all on the passenger side. Both front and back. The wheels were torqued properly. I am at a loss here, and frankly, I am worried about my Wife an Son driving around in this thing (LS400) if the wheels are gonna fall off.

Thanks,

Bill

Is this an interfearance engine, or is it like the later engines?

Thanks,

Bill

I bought a used fuse pannel from a yard, and after replacing individual items one by one, it turned out to be the Relay control center located directly behind the fuses. It is light blue in colour, and after replacing it, ALL of my elec. problems were solved.

Thanks,

Bill :magic:

Do all models use ATF? I sure hope not, but that may explain why I have a leaking hose. The previous owner used P/S fluid and it has a leak on one of the hoses, so I have been toping it up with P/S fluid as needed. Can I mix fluid? Should I get this flushed?

Thanks,

Bill

I found out from Lexus that my fuse panel is probably corroded. This is why my mirrors, heater, stereo, and both cigarette lighters don't work.

Anyone know where I can get a fuse panel for a '92 LS400?

Thanks,

Bill

Thanks,

I have started ripping things apart in order to trace the wiring, but a diagram would help so much more!

Bill

Yea, but I need a diagram to trace back to where the sterio and mirrors and heater might all join. No way can I trace all of them without help! :o

I can't believe I forgot that!

'92 LS 400

I was driving down the highway and my sterio quit. I checked the wiring and I have constant power, but no switched power. I started checking other things, and noticed that my climate control has no power, (however, the clock still works) and the power mirrors don't work.

I checked the fuses, and everything seems good, except, there is no power going to either side of the mirror/heater fuse.

Is there a relay or something that could have screwed up? Is there something else I can check? Does anyone have the factory wiring diagram for this car?

Thanks for any help!

Bill

I have the same problem with mine. There is a rod that runs horizontal from a moter to the adjusters. The rod, or the part that it fits into is stripped. I believe you can get these parts from the dealer.

Bill

I have a '92 in Thunder Bay, Ontario!

Bill

Ok, I knew our '92 had a factory security system, but never knew how to activate it. My wife thought that the light on the dash was just a theft deterant! anyway, she managed to set it off somehow the other day and freaked out because she thought the car was going to self destruct. ;)

If there is no shock sensors, what makes it go off? She says that she closed the trunk and it went off, but try as we might, we can't get it to repeat.

Thanks for any help,

Bill

I have had my '92 LS 400 up to 160 on the speedo. it takes a while, but it sure is fun!

Add me to the list! Neither works in my '92. Like that when I bought it.

Bill

My tach does not work in the cold, but it works in the summer. This leads me to believe that it is in the board.

My display is the same. As far as removing the display, it is easier than falling off a truck! I can have my sterio and heater control out in 5 min.

First grasp the wood trim ring that is around the shifter. Hold it at the end closest to the front seats and pull up and toward you. It has 2 legs on the front, so try not to lift too high as you remove it.

Next, grasp the ashtray from below it. Hold firmly and pull. It is tight, so don't be scaired to use some strength. Disconnect the wires from the back.

Now, point the vents that are above the heater control towards the floor. Grasp the bottom of the duct and pull firmly. Disconnect the wires from the back.

Now you should be able to see 2 Phillips screws on the top of the climate control, and 2 on the bottom of the deck. They are a little hard to see 'cause they are a little ways under the deck.

Be careful not to drop the screws!

Hope that helps,

Bill
