LEX470LX

I have change my suspension system I went to shocks and springs and the insurance company says there is no problem changing the system out with regualar shocks springs since toyaota make the sequia land cruiser are on the same frames

I went with STRUT MASTER REPLACEMENT SYSTEM WITH NO PROBLEMS HANDLES GREAT ALSO MORE MORE WORRYING ABOUT THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM NO MORE TOTAL COST OF KIT IS $525

I had it changed when i had the tranny fluid changed and some other things done i had the switch in the drink holder and they just put in i think it just pops out of the spot it is in yes the switch is all one piece the mirror adjustment and the folding switch is all in one deal

I think changing the switch will solve the problem as you've suggested.

How much did it cost you to replace the switch?

Where can I look for this switch for purchase?

Thanks

I got lucky and found one on Ebay for $25 try ebay craigs list if not a toyota or a lexus dealer or try a salvage yard they can locate one fast and cheap

That's funny because mine does the exact same thing in the passenger side. I can fold it and unfold it manually and the when I park in a tight space it will fold normally and then unfold as is should. But I usually must always do it manually again if I plan on folding it with the power function. But I do notice that in the winter time it usually works without me having to manually do it first. The constriction of the plastics from the cold might have something to do with it. And also it does not matter the amount of time that has elapsed for it to work with the power function after I have done it manually. I can fold and unfold it with my hand in June and wait until September and it will work.

YES mine worked when it was cold and ramdonly at times it just decide to close or open on it s own

the above pictures are of my amsoil fliud which is only after 3 minutes the five minute pictures water on bottom was clear

I have since went to strutmasters and ordered a kit to replace this ahc system cost me $512 for the kit and $200 to install the complete kit and get the suspension light off truck rides better than it did new handles better than new hieght is as in nuetral position on the ahc system

why keep going through this problem i spent well over $10,000 on repairing this piece of crap system and these accumulators labor fluid in the past 3 years since april 28 2010 i went through 3 complete sets of B & B Suspension accumulators now he blames it on the fluid saying he never said I could use amsoil when u sent him the email when he said it is a pretty good alternative from lexus ahc fluid he blamed the fluid in the sytem saying it is badly contaminated i went to lexus with the jars of fliud they said the fluid is fine it will not cause the failure's

To me it is just not worth the problems worries or the time and money to keep repairing a system that just sucks period i have a $25 off coupon if anyone else wants to use strutmaster conversion Kit part number is lx470-4

if anyone needs any of the Lexus shocks mine are only 6 months old u will need new orings to seal the system properly i will also sell the pump and any other parts you may need for your i will swap out the switches if you need those for your if your are bad all my parts are in excellent working order let me know what you need i will pull it out of thetruck upon request my email is yamahawatercraft @aol.com my cell 727 455 1421 mine is a 1999 lx470 all parts from this system have been replaced in past 6 months to 5 years mark resoinable offers for what you need ken

I am having the same problem I went through 3 sets since april 28 2010 and this time he tried to blame my fluid that he said I can use then he said he did not say i could use it Did the water test said he seen worse once i sent the email to him staing he said i could use the amsoil fluid #5 then he switched saying it was the fliud is contaminated I have no idea I am so sick of spending $300 each time i have to change these over ( labor and 3 cans of fluid ) i would have been better off getting the oem's and having them installed every time i have them installed i make sure they flush the system atleast through 2 cans of total fliud and use the third to drive the vehicle with either way I have no choice but try another set and see what happens if this set fails after all this I will just switch to shocks springs as in the land cruiser or may just got that way now have to think it over but i am most likely going to springs and shocks and be done with this crap all together

has anyone else switched the set up let me know how it worked out for you thanks

yes i had the same problem it is all one piece switch

Did your mirror folds sometime just like mine. I could hear the the sound. I feel that the problem is mechanical instead of electronic. but you may be right.

When the mirror does not fold, and then if I open and fold manually a couple of time then the power fold start function again

How much did it cost you to fix this issue?

Bye

I had the same problem with my 1999 lx470 i replaced the switch on the dash and it now works perfect

I own a year 1999 Lx470 and I have this above problem for quite some time. The issue is (though I consider it as minor), that the passenger side side mirror does not fold when I press the power button on everytime I press it. By this mean, it folds sometimes,mostly it does not. Do you think the motor or some other component in the mirror assembly is dying and needs replacement. or can it be fixed some other ways without having to buy the components.

Thanks

Big Hurt. Had the same problem with B & B Suspension. First set lasted 3 months, Keith said he had some problems with buying faulty O rings, and sent replacement pretty quick, no questions ask. Sent old ones back. 5 months later, same problem. So he sent another set. (Front) Installed in customer car. Keep in mind, Labor was free due to malfunction of parts, and not customer fault. This set lasted 3 months. Now Keith is upset, and tries to blame tainted fluid, and has changed his warranty. I had to go 250 miles and haul car back to our shop, as advised customer to not drive for safety sakes. Have reminded Keith that he had admitted that he had purchased faulty parts earlier, but he denied, but by reading this forum, has admitted before. ALSO, could not answer why never a problem with rear accululators if fluid was contaminated. Just very argumentitive. Finally was able to do "his test" and forwared photos of the fluid, as well of the leaking accumulators on the vehicle, and the can of $40 fluid purchased from Lexus. Sent to the over a week ago, and have had no response. Ask if they wanted me to remove Acc. and send to them, still no response.

I believe Keith does not take care of business, and his parts are now sub-par. On the first set he sent, we agreed and he charged me extra for overnight delivery. got them in 6 days. Advised him of this, said he would look into, never received credit. Also tried to say I had not returned last faulty Accumulators to him, therefore he would not honor warranty. Fortunately, saved receipts from P.O. to prove I did. I dont look for him to honor any type warranty any more, he hasn't mine. Will be glad to update should that change.
