After own this car for 2years (still love it), one day both remote stop working for no reason. Car is 98 LS400.
Details:
1.Both remote can not lock/unlock/open trunk/panic; ie, I push those buttons, nothing happened
2. I changed two new batteries, still not working;
3. I pushed the switch under the steering wheel for wireless on/off, still not working;
4. both key can drive, open the glove box, open trunk;
5. If I try any key in the PASSENGER`s side door, ALARM will start; I can stop the alarm by using the key on the driver side door;
6. using the program manual here (http://us.lexusownersclub.com/forums/index.php?act=attach&type=post&id=10603), I found that only two keys are registered (I have both keys, they are registed)
7. using the above manual, I reprogram both keys succesfully,(means, the door lock/unlock once when I push the any button at the end of the programming. according to the above manual, if programming failed the door will recyle twice instead of once)
8. However, the reprogramming did not fix any problem: key is fully functional but remote not working at all and use on passenger side will make ALARM.
Please help me! If you have any suggestions please email me lichunn@yahoo.com.
