Lexus LS 2007+ :: Radio Randomly Shut Down And Turned Back On

Today as I was driving on the freeway my radio randomly shut down and turned back on. it was a complete power down as if I was turning the car on. I believe I seen the dash also do a system check. I also think I felt the power steering turn on and off for a split second. very odd. I almost feel the entire car shut down for a split second.

Lexus - Gs400 :: 1998 - Starting With The Radio Cutting In And Out

I currently own a 1998 Lexus GS400 that is having issues starting. it'll start right up after sitting for a period of time, 30 min or more. Stalled out last night almost home, started right up this morning. Drove to work, wouldn't start back up 5 minutes later, but again started right up an hour later. It started last night with the radio cutting in and out, then radio wouldn't turn on at all. I noticed the interior lights getting kinda dim as well. What it might be?

Lexus ES 2013+ :: Nav Map Suddenly Turned Black And White - Radio Sound With Echo

Haven't driven the 2013 ES 350 very much yet but my Nav map has suddenly turned to black and white instead of the initial multiple colors, even during the day. What happened ... can't seem to find on the system how to revert back without going thru 900+ page book. Also, the map is showing some roads/hwys. with tiny circles (attached to each other) instead of the previous thick lines?

Radio, don't have the XM service but when listening to std. issue radio, sometimes and lasting maybe for 8-10 seconds or so, the radio suddenly sounds very "echoey" and more emphasized, it seems, from the back speakers. Then it reverts back to "normal" - only to do it again within the same 20 min. drive-time.

Ford F-150 (2004-2008) :: Radio Will Not Work When Turned On

I have a 2008 F150 4-Door. A couple of weeks ago I tried to turn my radio on and it wouldn't come on. I though it was just the cold weather affecting it. The following week I tired the radio again and it still would not come on so I pulled the fuse and checked it and it was good. Put in back in and the radio still would not come on. So I got a new fuse and put it in and the radio still would not come on. So what am I missing. What else can it be.

Ford - Escape :: 2004 - Radio Won't Shut Down When Ignition Is Turned Off

I have a 2004 ford Escape and the radio won't turn off when the cars ignition is turned off. I have checked the interior lights and the windows and they turn off, so I'm assuming that the relay isn't the problem. I have asked a ford mechanic what he might think it would be and he said it could be the radio, but I don't think it is.

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 :: Lights Stay On Even Engine Turned Off?

Whenever we come home at night, the headlights remain on for some period of time and then eventually shut off. Last night we came home and turned the car off but I was unloading for about 20 minutes and the headlamps never shut off. The only difference I can tell is that I had a door open the entire time while unloading. The only way to shut them off was to move the headlamp setting from AUTO to off. But when I cycled it back to AUTO, the lights didn't come back on. GX is normally driven with headlamp switch in AUTO mode.

Is there a way to change this setting? It's really annoying and unnecessary to leave the lights on for so long.

Lexus GX 2004-09 :: Radio Switched From 107.3 To 107.1 While Driving

I have a 2005 GX470 with 28 k miles. Purchased in April 2005, so the original battery is just shy of 6 yrs old.

Recently, the radio has be acting funny. For example, if the radio is tuned to 107.3, left to sit over night, there is a good chance it will be tuned to 107.1 in the AM. My wife also reported that while driving to the store the other day, the radio switched from 107.3 to 107.1 out of the blue while driving.

I can assure you we're not inadvertently hitting buttons by accident or anything like that. I've also seen this scenario with other stations 105.9 to 105.7, etc, and thought this could be a strange sign the battery is becoming weak (realistically, I should have changed it a year ago anyway).

I'm not interested in having the radio pulled out or anything like that.

Lexus GX 2004-09 :: GX470 No Sound From Radio

I own a 2004 lexus gx 470 and I am having some audio issues. The stereo system is the standard Mark Levinson speaker system. When i turn on my car, I can cycle through the different radio stations and cds, but there is no receiving audio coming from the speakers. I think it may be an amplifier problem, but i also don't know where to locate the amp or how to get my radio to work again. Also, I have tried holding the audio button while cycling my taillights on and off 3 times, but nothing shows up on the screen. My radio has not been working for about a year now.

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.

Lexus GX 2004-09 :: Car Is Experiencing Intermittent Starting

2004 Lexus GX470, for the last month experienced intermittent starting problems. Turn the key, one slight click first try,nothing after. Disconnect battery cable and reconnect, starts every time.

Then while driving a week ago the vehicle died, all electrical seemed fine, more like fuel cutoff. Now every attempt to start is the same sequence of events, first try one click. Second car turns over and won't start or if it does runs rough for a few minutes and dies.

Third try, the starter won't disengage until key is turned to off position.

Possibly the ECM? Immobilizer? It's obviously not a starter problem as disconnecting the battery caused it to start and now when it does start it runs rough and then dies.

Lexus RX 2004-09 :: Ignition Cranks But Not Starting

Just today this happened out of the blue. I parked the car, turned it off, came back to the car, started it with the key, and the engine was cranking and making the proper noise, but it wouldn't start. It just kept trying to start but wouldn't.

Eventually I had it towed, but it turns out after a while it did manage to start.I don't want this problem to arise in the future, but I don't know what it is. Maybe a spark plug?
