Hi folks, I'm new to this forum having had the 1993 GS300 only a couple of weeks. I'm just getting to know her, and there have already been a few problems, all but one of which I have been able to fix.
As of yesterday, the following all ceased to function at the same time:
a. The central locking
b. The radio
c. The steering wheel automatic adjustment on ignition on/off
d. The remote boot release
I have located 2 fuse boxes, one in the engine compartment - all ok, and the other on the driver's side kick plate. According to the cover there is supposed to be a 30amp fuse that covers "door" but I could not see it anywhere.
Has anyone else had this problem?
I have some advice to give too: when I got the car it stunk like an old ashtray, and the smell was coming through the vents, as well as from the carpet, upholstery and headlining. I therefore replaced the Denso A/C filters; there are two, and it is easy to miss the one that it tucked right up inside the casing - it just pulls put with the lug on the bottom left hand side. Access to the filter casing is under the glove box. A panel pulls down, held by 3 spring clips above and 2 plastic lugs below. There are 2 wing nuts which when undone release the cover where the filters are removed /replaced. But before I did all this, I ran the hot air blower and sprayed a dilute solution of household bleach through the air intakes beneath the windscreen wipers; shampooed the carpets and headlining, and cleansed the leather upholstery and seatbelts. The piece de resistance was a leather smelling air freshener (which really works - but I can't say who supplies it - Forum rules!)
I hope this was of help, and I hope somebody can help me with my fuse problem.
Cheers
Paul
