  1. I checked it , the one on the drivers side, i opened up the whole thing there are no cuts or lose connections, :( I am suppose to look at the one that goes under the plastic cover that lines up with the trunk hinge right? I open that up all the way to bare wire took all the tape out and goes into the rear seat next to the pioneer electronic device. how far am i suppose to follow that wire set into?
  2. IS that normal? the back wheels are spinning forward but the car is not in gear? also P R D is lit up and car wont shift out of first gear, does the computer think the car is in reverse and stays in one gear?
  3. It's inside the left hinge. Pull the black plastic trim down and away from the hinge starting closest to the back seat. Then read the tutorial linked above. I opened the entire wiring harness, there are no cuts or cracks or any sort, the wires go into the body of the back seat, which also seems to be entact and untampered. Is there any other way to see whats going on, once again the P R and D is lit up, also when i had the car up on jack stands the back wheels were spinning forward but the car was in neutral is that normal?
  4. It's inside the left hinge. Pull the black plastic trim down and away from the hinge starting closest to the back seat. Then read the tutorial linked above. Ok i found the wire harness that is inside the left hinge of the trunk, None of the wires seemed to be disconnected and I followed that to the back of the seat where there is some type of electronic computer that says Pioneer on it, which seems to be the amp for the sound system, the wires all seem to be intacted and never seem to have been tampered with, there is one type of connection in the middle like a little tiny black box where the wires go in and then back out am I suppose to open that up and see if the connections are okay? Not sure what to do, is there any picuture diagram of this fix? would that cause my transmission to stay in one gear? I bet it does, even though the linkage for the tranny is forward the computer thinks its reverse so it wont shift into the next gear going forward? anyone know where the computer is for this car?
  5. where is this harness located again, I looked inside the truck would I look inside the hood of the truck where the reverse light is located or do i look where the spare tire is located? would this cause the transmission to stay in one gear?
  6. MY 92 had a power steering leak and you will not believe this, I degreased the leak area and washed it out and it stop leaking for about 1 month, ok new problem, my car is in drive but the reverse light is on and the car again is stuck in one gear, last time I added fluid and it worked out and the car drove fine for about 2 months, now its acting up again. anyone ever have this problem
  7. do they sell rebuilt pumpkins or do I have to buy from the junk yard? anyone have one? 1990 lexus thats what i have LS400
  8. Any luck with Your LS? I'm close to You and I can check it out for You. im in rogers park email me your number
  9. I know sometimes people have those unlimited carfax deals, anyone have one here, can they run a vin for me
  10. I had post up my problem where the car would not shift into second or other gears, so i added some fluid and walaa, now the transmission shifts perfect, at cetain times I am getting a knudge when i go from P to D so it might be that I need to add some more, THat was scary i really cant afford a major repair now, The next one will be to fix the other lexus 1990 with the rear end issue, hopefully its something minor.
  11. My world is falling apart, both of my lexus are out of commision, my 1990 either the pumpkin is out or halfshaft and now the 92 stays only in 1st gear
  12. is this a computer issue? what can i do to fix this, car only stays in first gear
  13. I did run into a huge puddle of water can they screw up something? Im going to try to reset the computer tomorrow see if that helps
  14. I was driving to school today, and all of suden the car wont shift gears, its like stuck on one gear, I have to step on it and then it kicks and goes but the rpms are over 4000, anyone know whats going on? I knew there is some issue because when I shift from P to D it makes like a forward hard push, it drove fine though til today, now the car only will keep going forward if i rev it past 4rpm, opinons ideas thanks, dennis by the way Ive been trying to get a hold of you, I sent you email but you have not respond back yet
  15. I dont want to hog eveyones time, SO I will chill for a bit, BUt i own two LS400 , 1990 with 105kmiles and 1992 with 120k miles. I got a list of minor issues but dont want to hog up all the space, maybe in a day or two will put it up. :)
