I will spare you the whines relating to the difficulty I experienced while changing out a burned-out headlight (did both):
but henceforth, I will pay more attention to the words molded into the plastic stating (approx.) that a competent technician
should be retained to do the job...
Oh well, the 2001 LS430 is in my driveway, "immobilized" I suspect, as the fuel pump tests fine.
All the electrical appears to work fine, but given that no fuel is getting to the engine, that appearance is deceiving.
Fuses are good.
I do not have a tester: and would prefer to not have to have the car towed to the mechanic to see if there is a fault code (I'm sure there is.)
I wrongly thought that I could save some money by changing a simple headlight,
but discovered that my 50-year-old wrenching skills are somewhat obsolete.
So, is there a likely issue which has arisen which commonly occurs
when nimrods get cocky and brazenly think they can change a GD headlight???
Or do I bite the bullet and call a tow company??
☹️ So far, my projection is that it's unlikely that I will have saved money, looking back on it.
I'm still getting older, but the "wiser" part is coming slower, it does appear...
