I've looked around and some ppl with 92s say the amp is on the drivers side of the trunk behind a panel so have a look over on the left side.

Changing the whole part can get expensive on these cars that's why he suggested just changing the bushings where applicable. The timing belt kits in Amazon are pretty cheap. As far as the bushings I would get most of those from an online dealer like Lexus of South Atlanta.

It seems like that site is not displaying images anymore. How did you pull the pick?

You sure your in the right forum? I see you have an ES in your profile.

What Kansas said. You can use 87 if your in a pinch but if you get knock switch back immediately. You must have been using it for a prolonged period of time though.

Sorry for the misunderstanding. Billy I can't figure out how to post images or pdf files.

Try this thread and see if you can find some pertinent info. http://www.clublexus.com/forums/ls400/442318-how-to-fix-the-problem-with-non-working-reclining-on-drivers-seat-pictures-inside.html

Billy your posts gives me a chance to look at things I would not have know existed. Thanks

Thanks for responding and I cross posted this on clublexus also but have not got any responses. It seems like there is not a wealth of knowledge when it comes to working on the sunroof. I took my original sunroof apart when I first realized it was seized from lack of use and actually messed up one of the rails. I bought another complete sunroof from the junkyard and Just used the good rail from that one and put it back but for some reason the pinch protection kept kicking in anytime I would try to move it from the fully open to the close position. I ended up taking it to the dealer and they reprogrammed it but it would only work if I tilted it up or down. As soon as I would open it all the way it would go back but once i tried to close it the thing would still only go halfway and then slide all the way back to the open position. Nothing is wrong with any of the motors but as I watched it while its closing it the rail that I replaced would be trying to move up instead of staying flat while it was in the forward motion. So I went and bought another complete assembly from another yard and just bolted it up without messing with any of the internals and Lo and behold it worked perfectly. Even the the first one I bought had play so I just figured there is an adjustment that I need to make. There is only about a 1/4 inch of play and it's only when it's in the closed position. If I tilt it or bring it down to slide it open there is no play. By the way I spent a total of $200 for the 2 junkyard sunroofs so in my mind I'm still ahead as far as costs.

Ok Thanks to anyone who has Any Ideals. I've went through a whole lot getting my sunroof fixed. Originally it seized from not being used in over 2 years. I basically had to remove EVERYTHING from the inside of the car except the dash since water got in under the carpet. Anyway I ended up getting 2 complete sunroofs from the junkyard. I have taken the D*** thing out so many times it seems so easy now. I finally got it working after taking it to the dealer to get the one touch operation working again. My current issue is that when the sunroof is closed it has some play. Meaning that I can take my hand and push up on the glass and it will move. The glass is not moving but I can see the rails move up. I have read how to adjust the glass in the manual but I don't see how any of that would prevent the rails from moving.

Your welcome

This should help you out. I have to re-aim mine also, it seems after a very mild drop with Eibach springs that my lights only project right in front of the car at night. be-47.pdf

Maybe this will help. http://us.lexusownersclub.com/forums/topic/44338-anyone-know-how-to-change-the-starter-in-a-91-ls/

You more than likely will have to pull up the carpet in front of the drivers seat if it's anything like the 98-00 LS. Here you go. http://www.clublexus.com/forums/ls430/445158-ls430-oxygen-o2-sensor-location-and-part-numbers.html

Glad that it worked out. I actually need to change my own battery.

Maybe a dumb question but have you tried changing the battery in the key?

Very good info. I used this a couple of years ago to program a key I bought off of ebay for my 98. It took a couple of tries but I got it done.

Well I figured it out with some help from other posters in a thread I made in another forum for anyone that's looking for this same info. http://www.clublexus...ing-carpet.html

Sorry to bring back such an old post but I didn't want to start a new thread. I haven't posted on here in a while but I always lurk. Just to clarify, when this poster says "just pull hard toward the seat it will pop off" I'm assuming he is referring to the gas pedal. I'm in the process of removing my carpet from the car but can't seem to get it from around the gas pedal. I would hate to yank on this all important part and break something.

I just had to pop in and say thx for the manuals also. Ive been specifically looking for sunroof removal instructions.

Are you having any shifting problems? If your fliud has been low for awhile you can definetely burn up the clutches no matter how many miles are on the car. Since you said it smelt like something burning this might be the case, although I would try what nc said before I even think about a rebuild.

Its all too much to swallow. Everyone knew this was coming but kept their fingers crossed that everything would work itself out. Not a good way to do business.
