LEXUS RX 450H SE DEAD


Recommended Posts

 

Hi all, 

Im in the process of buying(not sure) a LEXUS RX 450H SE car  - 55k miles, 2010  - 3456 cc

But the car wont start - Dashboard blacked out

Im guessing its the Battery but not sure

I just want to gather your opinion on how much it will cost to fix assuming it has a dead hybrid Battery ?

 And list of problems that could be wrong with the car from electrical point of view - Ill assume petrol engine is ok

Many thanks

Sounds like the small 12v Battery needs charging/replacing as that should initially fire up the dash and computers that control the hybrid system.

Has the car been stood for a while and not used?

It wont be the hybrid Battery - more likely to be the 12V one. 

Id steer clear of the SE though, its not exactly loaded to the same level as an RX300 SE
