Thought I would also mention there is a push button on the passenger side under the glove box that selects which set of tires you are using make sure it is plugged in and that button is in the correct position -
The door lock for the key side is a manual operated lock with some electrical connections to it but the lock itself is not electrical sounds like the lock is frozen in place from lack of use or a linkage in the door is jammed

Dashboard recall replacement wait time
HaloRomeo27 replied to jjtx28's topic in 04 - 09 Lexus RX330 / RX350 / RX400h
I can say changing out the dash was a 2 day job and requires great patience and dedication the biggest thing is labelling and putting screws and bolts in a plastic ziplock bag and writing on it what they go to don’t just put all the stuff in one bag it will take several and don’t try and take short cuts remove what needs removed it will make the job much easier the job looks more intimidating than difficult -
Dashboard recall replacement wait time
HaloRomeo27 replied to jjtx28's topic in 04 - 09 Lexus RX330 / RX350 / RX400h
My best advice is replace it with a new dash I replaced mine myself just ordered a new one from the Lexus dealer was about $800 -
The highlighted selection is only for a reference and yes the selection above is the correct option as the J is for Japan models most of the older Toyota and Lexus use the 315MHz I just did a quick post on the TPMS did not go to in depth with it I can say I prefer the autel tool over techstream at least for reprogramming and testing
-
Ok I decided to share how to change a tire sensor if your on a budget and have the scan tool to program them now I don’t recommend you do it this way but if your in a bind and want to save money than this works I added the basic diagnostic so you can see and follow along if you anyone has questions feel free to ask me I will do my best to help I use Denso sensors from Amazon never had an issue with them
-
Now since I have this error on my Lexus and I am not replacing the sensors till I get my tires rotated I will post the diag info here and pics so others can see the issue
-
My scan tool basically reads all the sensors and tells me which one is not working correctly if you want new sensors I highly recommended OEM replacement you can order them though a local dealer there about 90 dollars US for 1 so about 400 if you replace all 4 add another 100 if your spare has one then they still need programmed after there install this is where the dealer pretty much bends you over
-
that warning is most likely a bad sensor in one of the tires do to battery that is the most common less common is the sensor is not correctly added to the TPMS system
-
Yes the Toyota dealer has the daig tool as lexus they use tech stream I like the software it only works on Toyota or lexus my subscription for that cost me about 2,000 a year but worth it and is the only way to get the latest ECM updates
-
There is two systems on the 400h that would need reset one is the hybrid learning which does require a tool and the other is the ICS most of the late 07 and 08 will do it automatically there was an ECM update for those

Water Leak Into Passenger Side Floor

No I used same diameter line the barb fitting is what will go into the other component the pictures will help out a great deal of. The understanding of it I have a master cylinder to change in a few days so I may go though the drain process as well -
Did your tool come with a cable to connect to the OB2 port ?
-
I have sevral diag tools the cost is way more than a dealer diag my tools cost around 5,000 for each one as there is different tools for diag not sure how far you are from me if u was close I would be more than happy to diag the issue there is a few things we can check when you have the time
-
Most cheaper tools will read the sensors but not what the ECM is reading so the tool will show everything fine but in the ecm it will not as far as the dome light that is a loose bulb
-
No I did not go the kit route the best sand paper I could find is made in Germany the finer the better used 3000 plus wet sanding then 3M buffing compound then cleaned the surface sprayed with clear coat I will need to look up the clear coat I used I know it was not cheap
-
And if the old sensors were not deleted from the ECM before the new sensors were added the ecm is most likely confused I guessing they were not programed correctly or there not the correct sensor not sure if you took a picture of the new ones before they were installed as I would be able to tell you if there correct
-
I have a tool that can read twice as much information that tool is reading and as always launching a parts canon never ends well I would have diag the issue before the sensors were replaced honestly it will take a high end scan tool to correctly diag those sensors and the ecm that controls them and did you replace them with OEM the only ones I found that work correctly is Denso you can get those on Amazon for about 50 dollars for one
-
There is 2 bulbs in the running lights one is in the high beam side and the other is on the side
-
Yes the projectors I replaced with OEM bulbs and yes the running lights I used VLEDs I think they have a slight blue tint for the high beams I went with SYLVANIA 9005 SILVERSTAR ZXE GOLD HALOGEN HEADLIGHT BULB they have held up well I never needed to replace my headlight assembly I just removed them and sanded them and buffed them out and re did the clear coat on them
-
Figured this may help on the headlight remove there is 2 10mm bolts on top there is 1 10mm bolt under the relay fuse box that just unclips to move out of the way then the last 10mm bolt is on the fender well you will see that once the bumper has been removed
-
I stayed with OEM HID bulbs upgraded the Halogen bulbs to better Halogen bulbs as far as the maker bulbs go i went with VLEDs there not cheap but there still working the turn single bulbs i stayed with OEM
-
That is the ABS actuator on the passenger side those make that noise if there is air in the break system or it has not been properly bleed or the fluid is way over due for replacement
-
That rubber is a vibration dampener

Have you tried the window switch on all the doors or just the master window switch’s on the drivers door
