My 1995 LS400 has high idle on start ( about 1800). Then normal after long warm up. Any help?

Also,my post from a while ago ( My mistake on year):

I had a very good experience there as well. Doug Waubaugh (sp) was especially helpfully.

Brent, I have the same problem but no flashing seatbelt light. Will you keep me updated on your progress. I can not figure out private mail on this form. Try siszbob@aol.com

What is the web site that you got the good mast from?

How do I get at the connector on the passenger side aft of cat converter? code P0156?

1. You pull of the frame/step on the right of the passenger seat. Hold it at the top next to the bottom dash compartment and pull it off.

2. Take out the vent cover. It's located just about where the passenger's left knee would be. A flat screwdriver in the rear (smaller)side usually gets it out.

3. Take the passenger seat back as far as it will go.

4. Pull on the carpet and bend it back

5. You should see a flat black tube to take air from the blower to the vents at the back floor. Take out the 10 mm bolt holding it down then pull the tube out by moving it around.

6. There's a tube in front for venting the condensation from the airconditioner. Make sure it's tight.

7. The wire for the O2 sensor should come out of the floor and the connecter should be hooked on to the wall. 4 wires: 2 blacks, 1 white and and 1 blue.

I've got a 1998 LS 400, and I believe the design should be exactly the same as your 1995. The 1990-1994 LS is a bit different, I think.

I know what "three bolts inside the trunk behind the liner" you're referring to, but you don't have to mess with those. You do have to sort of loosen/remove the tail lamp assembly to get at the bulbs, and this requires the removal of exactly two screws (circled in photos). As Cyber_man mentioned, you'll need to use a flat screwdriver to pry off the dime-size circular covers concealing the two screws. I've attached a first picture showing one of the covers and a second picture of both screws with the covers removed.

Once you get the screws out, gently pull the tail lamp assembly back while jiggling it a bit toward the outboard side of the car (away from the trunk opening). It should tip back and allow you to access the bulbs. Of course, reassembly is the reverse of removal.

The bulbs in the trunklid itself are easy--flaps in the trunklid carpeting grant access to those.

Great advice! done in less than five minuets. THANK YOU!

1995 LS400 code P0156 ( 02 bank 2 sensor 2) I replaced an 02 sensor a year ago( bank one I believe) is this one on the passenger side?

I checked the fuse and it was blown. I can't believe I had to start a new thread to tthink of that LOL. Any way I replaced it and teasted out the gps for 20 minutes and the charger worked perfectly. I didn't blow again which makes me wonder why it fried in the first place though. Thanks for the help.

I plugged an electric motor into my front lighter outlet. it no longer works and I think that I checked the correct fuse. Any hints? If I melted wires, how do I get the rotating door off to chase wires? 95 ls400.

I'm stumped. I need to replace the rear tail ight on my 95 LS400. The bulb is not in the trunk lid and I assume is behind the trunk liner. Well I removed the corner of the liner and it looks like there is a cable with a rubber seal leading out of the trunk into the light. The cable will not come out and I can't figure out how to get to the bulb. ANy thoughts?

Thanks as always!

I think I am 4 years too late in replying this, but I think someone may find this info useful. The previous reply to this question did not answer the question. I just fixed mine yesterday and was confused by reading the response before I finally figured it out. This is what you need to do.

The rubber seal is not removable. Ther are two white plastic clips-like push pins next to the rubber seal. These 2 plastic push pins hold the light assembly in place. Before you use a pair of plier to remove and un-hinge the clips, you have to first remove 2 screws on the outside of the car. Next to the license plate, there are 2 black plastic round covers, about the size of a dime. Remove the round cover and you will see 2 screws. Remove both screws and then un-hinge the plastic clips next to the rubber seal on the inside of the quarter panel. The light assembly should come free.

Turn the light knob counter clock wise, and replace the bulb. Reverse the process to put everything together.

Hope you'll find this useful.

Thanks for the post. Is everything that you described external or do you have to remove the three bolts inside the trunk behind the liner (after taking off plastic trunk guard)? Thanks.
