You need to look up reseeding. Which is how you reprogram an already programmed key. Not too hard to find how I suspect. I did mine (yeah...from an already programmed key off ebay and my own original key, reprogrammed both at the same time the reseed was done.) it was the only way.

Please bare in mind the 'ebay sold techstream and supplied cable' cannot.code you a new key. You need a proper Vcx cable for that. I know from experience. Bought a used key off ebay tried and tried and failed and failed. Got proper cable and coded first time. Others may have had similar or success with the cut down cheaper cable and it would be interesting to know. Regards

Agreed!

I had this. Turns out the non genius lexus tpms unit in one of the wheels was to blame. Changed it for original lexus one and light never come back on. Get the tpms checked to see if they are all genuine. If not change the one or ones that are not genuine

So glad your car is same as mine and in white also. Those red calipers look good. Made me make my mind up about doing mine. Good job!

Don't know if this helps.. But.... I have a fsport with the same moving clock. I had an issue with stuck milage on the odometer and had to correct the issue. Through my attempts of flashing hex code onto the IC on the odometer did invoke the condition your seeing “lda and vcs". Realisinf this flashing the correct file onto the IC got rid of those issues. The difference here though is your putting a clock not designed for that car in it and perhaps expecting it to be ok. I would seem some tweaking of the hex code needs to be done on the clock... But... Bare in mind when I cured mine the clock I cured it on was meant for the car it is in. Basically the F clock seems to be getting a signal from the car it can't deal with and throwing those errors on the dash. I'm not sure they are fully exchangeable but seems perhaps not.

I did repair my cluster on my is300h f sport but the cluster was the original. I fixed the stuck odometer by reprogramming a new IC and surface mounting it to the board in place of the old/broken one. I have since been tracked down from other lexus forums and repaired another f sport cluster with the exact same issue. Very strange fault to occur. My attempts with lexus were totally fruitless since they just wanted to sell me a new fitted cluster. Hmm I think not. So I set to read up and did the job myself. Ian

4 years in Steve with my second hand is300h F sport. No issues with hybrid system or battery yet. Touch wood. Cetainly the best car I have had. Would love something like rc-f but don't think I can justify it to myself. Ian

I hope lexus has made their newer cars learn the damn things. Certainly my is300h 2014 didn't

Hi. I once had similar situation. Unfortunately for me the men at said garage treat all wheels and tyres and tpms as one and tried to tell me the car will learn the new tpms sensor they had replaced "just drive it around and it will sort itself out". Yeah right, after a week still had indicator on dash so I know how annoying it is. I also now know they had sh*t for brains. If they had used their brains they could have picked the phone up where lexus would have told them any new tpms needs coding to the car. Usually done with teachsteam. (Btw that's not the amazon cheapo job, reason being is that the software works but the cable has some connections disabled. Buying proper cable costing £70 got all working.) Anyway I got said garage to give me all four tmps id's and I programmed them into techstream. Since then no tpms light in a year. Lesson learnt. Don't use garages that just shift tyres and nowt else.

I used to have to use redex in my is220d. That was due to the phenomenon known as white smoke intermittely occurring after the car had surpassed 100,000 miles. Strange that lexus couldn't and wouldn't fix it. Not used redex in my is300h but interested to see what others think. Also has anyone an opinion on tuning/mapping this car. Seems its stayed well clear of from the remaplers. If it has a petrol engine when the hybrid isn't running, why is it stayed clear or? Sorry not trying to change the subject.

V5? What for the vin?

Did the app work with the car?

Hi What I did wasn't a real lot to be honest. The milage wasn't clocking up as it should. I deciphered the code locations of mileage, of which there are two, one for the displayed mileage and another with the incremented figure ready to be moved to the displayed location and rinse repeat. Anyway short of sorting that correctly and then flashing it back to the IC, and fit/test was about it. Interestingly, my two code locations had the same figure in then, hence it not clocking up. The pusle was certainly there to make the increment but I think because locations A and B contained the same hex figures for the displayed and new mileage I guess the unit froze on what to do. The bigger question is why did it get like that, why did I find some other person with the same issue in the same mileage approx area, and why do I now have a guy who's contacted me with the self and same issue with his f sport. No coincidence me thinks. Anyway.. certainly the logic to move the dial etc will be contained on the code in perhaps another IC involved in moving the display as well as moving the motor etc. My best guess is that power rails etc the data rails are most likely also the same fed to the clock and the clock is responsible for dealing with them. My best guess (and it is just that) is that they are likely interchangeable, but rightly as others have said you still need the buttons on the wheel to actuate the moving display. The simplest test is both cars together and do a swap to see. Short of that I wouldn't shell out anything personally.

My fsport does exactly the same and has done for the last 3 years I've had it. I can't remember what side it does it but it's not the same on both. Usually that's a cv join issue but who knows. I hardly ever full lock steer it so it's rare. Ian.

Hi there. Calibration files are essentially ecu updates. With techstream (if you have it) can be applied to the car using the correct process. Regards Ian

Hi. I didnt try to fit a fsport dash from one mk to a different mk. I bought the car and the odometer was stuck at 55k miles. I couldnt live with that. I desoldered the IC and flashed it. Worked after a few different attemlts Ian

Hi. How did ya get on with this? Ian Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk

Yes I too connected a zif IC socket and lead and soldered it to the back on the pads of the board. It allowed me to put the clock back in place but easily flash the IC by removing it and then replacing it. Very useful when testing. Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk

I assume your ton of time hacking it was spent with it out of the car powered up on a bench? I know multiple changes and reloads of the file in situ would have been a right ballache. Did you just hack your own file or did you use the one I sent? Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk

I think I need the 'lock the Car because the remote isn't near and hasn't been for sometime' feature. Why? Well, I had a lexus is 220d and that had a small pressable button on the door handle and I religiously pressed it when leaving the car. The same can't be said for my actions now. I rarely remember to press the 'so called' button on the door handle of the is300h. This is for one main reason, which I personally think is a design flaw in terms of security. The button on the is300h does not detent and provide feedback when pressed. Sure it may sound the latching of the locks actuating but on a road with heavy constant traffic you'd be lucky to hear it. But there is something about getting positive feedback from a button that depresses. I don't rate the touch here and no feedback (other than the indicators or sound of lock). I think it's like muscle memory, no positive feedback, no remembering to press it. I often go to my car and only then realise I didn't lock the thing. Sometimes all night. I would love lexus to go back to the old style. Personally. But we all know they wont. Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk

You might need someone with techstream to reset the immobiliser code and recode the keys to the ecu. I have techstream but you probably don't live nearby in Yorkshire. Ian Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk

The paint code should be in the plate on the door column. Regards. Ian Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk
