Hi People Apologies for confusion over my description of the fault on the RX300 you can probably can tell im not mechanically minded. Lee suggested checking the fuses to see if any had blown, it turned out that the ETCS fuse had blown which supplies the accelerator hence no drive or pedal. It also blew the following fuses, Horn, electric windows, and radio. I think I got off lightly with this one and as john correctly said Live and learn. Thanks all you help Rob

hi steve Thanks for the info, I will get hold of a diagnostic reader to see if the code shows up. the wife did jump the car backwards, got the jump leads round the wrong way and since then no accelerator pedal

2004 RX 300 accelerator pedal not working, the car idles fine but nothing happens at all when pedal is pressed, Any help would be appreciated

Hi My wife tried to jump start our lx 300 and unfortunately connected the positive and negative jump leads the wrong way round, a lot of sparks from the battery on the donor car the leads got very hot and now the lexus will start but once you select drive or reverse we have no drive in either direction, I know the electrics have been fried but does anybody have any ideas as to where to start.
