Thanks Paul, I will pick up courage to pull the thing out once again and check it out Regards. Dave

Thanks guys I took it out again to check that I had replaced all three plugs , which I had, I found that by leaving the middle black plug out I got the radio and the climate control back to full working order, I can live without the CD player ,but just obsessed with keeping my old ls430 in 100% new condition. Suppose I will have to keep looking for a 2003 being broke with a unit witht he same prefix P3909 shown on the cassette flap! Cheers and thanks

Hi and greeting to all ! I have just tried to FIX ? the cd player in my LS430 2003 ,It was simple to remove , and replace ,but it ends there. I found that on replacing it I now don't have the radio or sat nav or control of the climate working . I spoke to the main Lexus dealer who has serviced this car since I owned it ,his suggestion is to try and find a breakers that might have a replacement cd/radio unit ? he also said that the number shown on the front of the cassette flap has to be an exact match,mine is P3909 hope someone can help Cheers
