  1. Well at least I know now. I'll sell it to someone else for £10. There's always some mug out there (me). Cheers people.
  2. At least it wasn't a tremendous loss. £4.
  3. Just bought one of those chips which increase your BHP by 20. It's saying to locate the IAT (Intake Air Temperature) sensor and disconnect it etc. Where the hell is that sensor. Could anybody send me a photo of where it is. Has anybody done this before and if so does it work? Let me know please?
  4. Seen that one but I thought that if I can do it myself then i can fix it myself as well
  5. I remember seeing that you had the same problem as me with the screen going blue then just going blank. I tried everything that everybody suggested but couldn't get a hold of the ribbon cable so I am now thinking about replacing the screen itself within the housing unit and get rid of the ribbon cable that's there altogether. I think someone has done this as this rings a bell. I'm just fed up saying to people 'My car's got satnav as well but the screen's f******'
  6. Had enough of my satnav screen. I would hope to replace this screen within the housing unit for something more easily available. Has anyone done this? If so could you give me a few pointers as I suspect this might be something a lot of people might be needing. I also hope to set up a switch to give the screen a dual purpose of Satnav/TV and DVD. Is this feasable?
  7. Hi im new to the forums but have been working on lexus since 1989 when they were inroduced to ireland to code a IS200 remote key 1 Drivers door open 2 insert Key in to ignition -remove 3 using the central locking switch on the drivers door LOCK to UNLOCK 5 times ie forward/back counts as one 4 close/open door 5 lock to unlock another 5 times 6 insert key in to ignition 7 off to on to off .. once to add a key .. twice to rewirte.. remove key 8 after this the door locks will respond 9 while this is happening hold down the lock button on the key and press the unlock button on the key 5 times .. release and press unlock once if you have been successful the door lock will lock unlock once it can be tricky to do its all in the timing of doing all the stages Best of Luck Just did this sequence and it worked absolutely spot on. I have the full lexus manual and the sequence they gave was different from that and it didn't work but yours was spot on. One wee tiny problem was as you know what i'm talking about, but when i turned the key in the ignition five times to tell me how many keys were coded in the system it came back none (ie locked and unlocked five times) when these keys were already programmed in. Anyway got my first key logged in now but i want to programme the master key in. Is it the exact same process or do i use the programmed key to start the sequence and finish with the other key? Does this make sense?
  8. Your the man. I knew someone would have the answer. Let this be a lesson to new members if you need a question answered about anything to do with your Lexus, ask it here. Then we can put the Lexus garages out of business, start making them ourselves and then the whole world can be ours. Ha ha ha ha.
  9. Hopefully someone can help. I have the software and the laptop to run diagnostics checks (e.g. fault codes) but i can't find anywhere which does the cable which connects the laptop to the car. Someone will know in this forum as they always do. Cheers
  10. Looking for help again. My satnav screen keeps flickering. When it flickers it changes colour as well and when I tilt the screen down to the last setting the screen blacks out but comes back on again when I tilt it back to fully open. Any whizz kids give me a step for a hint as to whether it's a loose connection or the screen is on it's way out. Thanks in advance as somebody always has the answer on this site.
  11. Thanks for offering but I managed to source one on ebay. Thanks again.
  12. I know this sounds stupid but I have a '99 V Is200 SE and i am at a loss as to where the built-in amplifier goes. Mines is missing. Sorry for being so thick. Brian
  13. Just cover all bases. Another possible location for your speedo might be on the wheel bearing at the back wheels in which the ABS sensor picks up the rotation of the wheel. Don't know if that's the case with Lexus as it was the case in my last car and nobody knew it except for the dealer. Probably wrong but it's another option.
  14. Not entirely sure of the version which is most recent but I can tell you how to take the CD out. The disk drive should be in the boot at the side of the spare wheel. When you take it out it should tell you what version you have in. Hope this helps.
