Lexus GX 2004-09 :: 2007 GX470 - No Audio From Radio / CD Or Nav
My 2007 GX470 after always working perfectly, is now not putting out any audio from radio, CD, nav. When you start the car, you hear a pop sound. Should I assume it is the amp? Went to Car Toys and manager who was shorthanded suggested he try resetting the radio, but out how to reset it, it that is possible.

It's a weird issue. Randomly the radio's volume can not be raised or lowered. Usually this is at first time you start the truck no matter cold or hot. When this happened last time i clicked on the button that says sound. It brings you to the screen to change fade and balance and it was all darked out that you couldn't tap on it. After two minutes or even less it started to work. I'm thinking the original amp is the issue but others tell me its the radio.

Lexus GX 2004-09 :: 2007 GX470 - Intermittent Engine Whirring / Zinging Sound
2007 GX470 120,000 miles. Great vehicle and no problems until now. Seems I have an intermittent engine whine/whirring/zinging sound. I say intermittent because sometimes it there and other times its gone. It is fairly loud. Almost like an extremely loud alternator whine, only this sound is coming from the area near the ac compressor. There is some plumbing which runs just along the left side of the compressor pump and when I grab those lines and the little aluminum cannister in that area, I can feel the vibration in that system, big time. No vibration from the compressor pump though. Not sure what those lines are, but whatever they connect to is probably the culprit.
Its odd because the noise comes and goes. It doesn't fade in/out. It's either full blast loud, or totally gone. Once it's gone, it doesn't come back for a few days. Then one morning i go out and start the truck, and there it is again! Usually lasts for about a day, then it goes away for a week or so. After a week goes by, there it is again! Really odd. I had my mechanic look at it, but it wasn't making any noise that day (as luck would have it). He told me it was an awesome vehicle. Of course I agreed, but that didn't diagnose the problem.
Lexus GX 2004-09 :: GX470 - No Beep Sound For Voice Command / Thump When Brakes Released
I just bought my mother's 2004 GX470 and I tried the voice command button on the steering wheel but no beep sounds and nothing happens. I tried looking up the information in the manual and seems like I'm doing everything right.
Second, when I brake I feel a thump as I release from the brakes, is that normal?
Lexus GX 2004-09 :: Radio Comes On With No Sound
My 2004 GX470.
No sound from radio. Nav and sound for Nav work fine. Radio comes on with no sound. Checked all fuses with no problems. Replaced amplifier with a new amp. Still no sound.
I checked the new amp before installing and it was in good working order. Is there any special procedure that needs to be done to get the stereo to recognize the new amp? Still no sound.
Lexus GX 2004-09 :: No Sound At All From Radio Or CD Player
My wife went to start up her 2006 GX470 and there was no sound from the radio or CD player.
All the lights and buttons seem to be working properly but no sound at all. I suspect it may be the amplifier.
I checked the fuses under the hood and radio 1 and radio 2 seem to be okay. Is there anyway to check if the radio is and or the amplifier the issue?
My second question is it worth buying just the factory radio/amp or is it better to upgrade the radio and amplifier?
Are there plug and play wiring harnesses so I don't have to splice the wires? It is again a 2006 Gx470 with Navigation without Mark Levinson and with rear entertainment system.

View 3 RepliesLexus GX 2004-09 :: GX470 Cranks And Starts On Second Try
This is a problem that started a couple months ago, and I've taken it to two separate mechanics. Neither knows what the problem is. Basically, most times I try to start the car (~75% of the time), it cranks, and keeps cranking, but does not start. I have to pull the key back, and turn it again. Then it starts no problem.
Not fuel related, as pushing the gas while it's cranking and not starting does nothing. It's not regular either; sometimes it starts first try on a cold start, sometimes not. Sometimes it starts first try after driving for a while, sometimes not. It's a 2004 with 130k miles.
Interestingly, I am pretty sure this started when I got a new key. The physical key shell snapped and separated from the blade. I ordered a new one, and put the old transponder into the new key shell. I haven't had any sort of anti-theft problems afterwards (unless this is one).

Lexus GX 2004-09 :: 2006 GX470 No Audio?
So the other day I was listening to the radio, and all of sudden no more audio.. After some troubleshooting, and some reading. I am thinking it's the levinson amp. I have a few questions:
First where is the best place to buy a replacement.
I assume it's the piece under the passenger seat and it's as simple as undoing the bolts and swapping out the cables..
I did run the diagnostic with the holding info, and flicker the lights and everything came up as "ok". I just need to get audio going in this thing again for as cheap as possible!

2007 GX470
Display screen blank- radio and AC work but cant control on touch screen (its blacked out), tried a few tricks that others had suggested
like hold info and cycle lights 4x
removed positive battery cable and replaced
held menu for a minute
etc etc
Gave up. Went to dealer expecting a unpleasant $$ (buy a new nav screen) type of surprise. nope! service writer pulled it in to the shop and ....
Disconnected the NEGATIVE battery cable. Fixed it right away and didn't charge me a thing (shouldn't have anyway) He said that sometimes the computer just gets scrambled and shuts itself off as a precaution. So if you nav screen is blacked out and unresponsive give that a try.
Lexus GX 2004-09 :: 12V Power Outlet Failure On 1st Gen GX470
I was using the12V power outlet to power a small air compressor to a small air tank. Had to answer a phone and forgot about it for a while. When I returned, the air compressor was not working. I figured I either blew a fuse or fried the compressor. I pulled the 12v plug from the power outlet and inserted it in the cigarette liter outlet and the compressor still worked.
I then plugged my radar detector into the 12V outlet and it did not work.So I figureed I blew a fuse. I pulled the 15 amp fuse from #54 but it looked good. To double check I swapped this fuse with the 15 amp fuse for the rear wiper and the fuse was fine.
So I am thinking the 12V power outlet socket must be bad. Isn't that why we have fuses -to protect an expensive part with a cheap one? Is this an easy DIY job?
