I was very happy! Very surprised though that 2 different technicians (?) from a Lexus dealership AND someone from their parts/servicing department dismissed or didn't entertain the idea of it being a blown fuse

After countless hours scouring the internet and this forum (including 2 trips to Lexus who wanted to charge me £196 to investigate), I finally fixed the problem... The 7.5 amp dome fuse in the passenger foot well had blown, and after replacing it the interior lights and central locking has started working normally again! Hope this helps anyone who may come across something similar in future.

I will ask my friend to check again with his diagnostics tool and let you know. Thanks

Hi and thanks for reading my post. My engine management light on my 2001 IS200 came on recently, so I asked my friend who is a mechanic to have a look at it. After plugging in a Snap On diagnostics computer, he told me it appears it is the catalytic converter and the fuel is too lean/rich... Has anyone experienced this? If so, how can I fix this? Thanks in advance, Anthony

Hi I wonder if anyone can help? I bought a Y Reg IS200 in June last year, 1 previous owner with 71k miles on the clock and serviced every year by Lexus. It has served me very well and I am very happy with it, however a few months ago the interior dome light stopped working all of a sudden. Then last week, I tried to lock the car using my key remote and nothing happened. I tried the 2 spare key/fobs to lock and unlock the car but to no avail. I replaced the battery in the main fob and am still having no luck. 2 days ago I bought a replacement interior dome bulb from official Lexus parts, but after fitting it it is still not working. I'm hoping it's a simple issue such as a fuse, and not something more serious! Any thoughts/experience/advice would be greatly appreciated! Many Thanks Anthony
