I’ve sorted it now.

had to use the s/htr fuse and that’s definitely switched.

I have the nextbase dashcam hardwire kit and have plugged my fuse replacement holder into multiple fuse positions in the passenger footwell fuse box but I’m gettting a permanent live feed whichever I plug it into even with the ignition off.

Obviously I don’t wanna drain the Battery but can’t find one that seems to only come on with the ignition. Tried so many and getting frustrated now 

How or what do I do please?

Hi

Is it normal for the drivers seat side wing to wear on the leather? It’s done 57k miles and I assume it’s standard wear but wondered if anybody else has anything to add to this? Shame as it’s gorgeous leather.

Or, to put it another way:

Has anyone, ever, upgraded their infotainment system software on an IS300H - with non-premium software - themselves?

I'd really love to do this but fear of turning my infotainment system - or even the car - into a brick is holding me back

I took the plunge and bought the satnav update for my executive non premium nav  64 plate IS300h from eBay seller sergvia this week. They email you a link and you download it, stick it on a correctly formatted usb drive and update your car yourself using the activation code they send you. Worked first time and has changed my firmware from vc18100a to vc18101b. No issues whatsoever and was £89 all in which is less than half what Lexus quoted me. Latest maps too so result in my opinion

If it disengages every time if you apply the foot brake, I'd suspect a faulty stalk

That was my thinking too. Cheers

Hi

Got my IS300h this week and sometimes the cruise control stalk wont disengage cruise whilst in it by pulling towards me. Seems to zone out and become unresponsive every now and then. Works fine when its working but just every now and then it'll do it.

Anybody heard of this before?

I did it myself but it isn't available on the portal.  You need to get the files from https://www.lexus-tech.eu

Do a search for ECU Software updates (even though this isn't for the ECU) and enter your VIN number.  It will ask for the technical services bulletin number which is BE-0081L-1113

i tried this but i never got asked for a bulletin number and never gave me the option to get it, could you explain in further detail please? I'd appreciate it

Heres what mine says...

"Model Description - IS 300h F Sport Lhr PNav Pro"

I've got premier nav and premium leather if that helps.. I assume you have either or both?

 

 

i literally have no idea, i had my 1 year old and my 5 year old whilst on my own trying to look at the car and bought it without knowing the full specs as they were driving me nuts. very stressful

As I mentioned in another thread earlier this afternoon, I changed the front cigarette lighter in my RX300 for one of these and they work really well, charging my phone quicker than a 'normal' USB socket:

 

where'd you buy one of those please?

use a baby wipe, im not joking. they're amazing on this sort of thing 

Hi
