Lexus LS 2007+ :: Automatic Headlights Do Not Go Off When Leave The Car And Lock It

I just purchased a 2007 LS and at night when I have headlights on Auto, when I leave the car and lock it, the headlights do not go off. If I do not lock it, the headlights go off ok. What could cause this? Is there some kind of setting for this?

Ford - Thunderbird :: Turning Off Automatic Headlights Function

I have a 1988 Ford Thunderbird LX which seems to have automatic headlights. The second the the engine starts, lights go one, and the second the door opens after the engine turns off, lights go out, no matter where the setting on the headlight switch is.

Me being old school enough and use a switch (especially having vintage autos which keep headlights on and will not alert that they are on), I would rather have the switch function as normal, without an automatic function at all.

Is this even doable with this car, and something that is easily changeable (like a relay or something), or is it borderline with we wiring the car.

Lexus GS 2006-11 :: Only One Side Automatic Headlights Turns On

I've got a 2006 GS 300 and in automatic mode, when it turns on my low beam head lights, the driver's side does not turn on automatically. I have to manually turn off the lights then turn them back on and everything works fine. I have aftermarket ~5000K bulbs installed, Garax, I think (I assume they're real ones, I bought them from either XenonDepot or Nigel... can't remember). The bulbs are about 3.5 to 4 years old. Ballasts are the originals.

On a side note, I wasn't really impressed by the Garax. Might switch to Ultinons. Then again the stock 4300k sucked as well. I'd like to get some halfway decent lighting on this car without having to retrofit lenses.

The bulbs are not from XenonDepot or Nigel, they are from theretrofitsource.com (D4S: Morimoto XenGreen (XenGrnD4S) Kelvin 5000K). I don't think they are a quality product, IMO.

Prius (Gen 2) :: 2007 - Headlights Turning On And Off

My sister recently bought a 2007 Prius Package 6 with HID's. Her headlights will turn on for about 2-3 minutes then one will go out and then both will go out. If you turn off the headlights and turn them back on then they will both turn on again but only for a few minutes. What this can be? I figured it's not the bulbs since once they go out, they shouldn't come back on but I could be wrong.

Lexus ES 2007-12 :: Disable Automatic Door Locking / Unlocking

I'm slowly reading through the ES-350 manual, picking and choosing parts to read. There are several 'Personalized Preferences' that I've noted down and will have addressed at my 1st month service.

I noticed on pg. 21 of the manual that there are settings to set and cancel the door-locking/unlocking functions. These functions are also mentioned in the 'Personalized Preferences' section, so there is overlap here (on paper anyways).

Anyways I tried a couple of times to follow the instructions on pg. 21 to disable the door locking and unlocking when the car is placed in Park and Neutral.

It didn't work for me. The instructions aren't all that clear to me, nor of what they are supposed to accomplish. I'd like to not have the doors lock when I place the shift out of Park and not have the doors unlock when I place the shift into Park.

Lexus LS 2007+ :: LS460 Cruise Control Does Not Perform Automatic Downshifting

I have a 2007 LS460 and one issue I have, which could be costly unless I'm paying attention, is the cruise control does not perform automatic downshifting like my Honda does. In fact, my speed can increase by about 10-15mph going downhill, which a couple of times I've been lucky to realize my speed is increasing and downshifted manually and sure enough there was a speed trap. I really don't like driving by luck, if you know what I mean.

Is there something that is causing this? I do not recall that it has ever worked correctly...

Lexus LS 2007+ :: How To Get Rid Of Haze In Headlights

The other day I really looked at them and realized that the yellowing headlights are kind of ruining the front look of the car. Mine is a 2007 and has been a northern car all it's life and I assume this is a more frequent issue with the northern state owners, rather than southern, due to salt, sand etc.

Has to tackle refurbishing headlights? If so, is there a 'best' method to get rid of the haze and restore them to near original shine and transparency? I've wet sanded and buffed headlights a long time ago on another vehicle and after a few weeks the haze much worse than originally, so I don't want to repeat that with these.

Lexus LS 2007+ :: Turn On Fog Lights Without Headlights?

I'm wondering if it's possible to turn on the foglights without the headlights on the 2013+ LS460. I understand it's not possible without modification on 2007 - 2012 models, but I'm wondering if anything's changed.

Ideally, I would want to run the foglights as "daytime running lights", preferably without modifications.

Lexus SC430 :: 2007 - Headlights Turn Off On Their Own While Driving

I have a 2007 and I've just developed my first problem since I purchased the car new in 2007. While driving, my headlight(s) will turn off by themselves.

Sometimes it's the right one, sometimes it's the left one, and sometimes they will both stop working. Turning the headlight switch off and then on brings them back to life.

What part in the headlight system is causing this?

Lexus LS 2007+ :: Bumper Removal To Access Headlights?

I know this may be kinda tacky to some but i keep seeing these audi's driving around and the headlights with the LED DRL's always catch my eye. I ordered a set of led DRL and i want to install them either inside the headlight housing or around the rim of the housing if i cant get the font plastic off. How to remove the bumper cover so i can access the bolts that holds the headlights in.

Headlight assembly without damaging the plastic lens . I've seen some other guys toss a toyota matrix assembly in the oven at 350 for 3 minutes to soften the adhesive and then pry apart the front lens off the housing. Would this work with the ls460 or would it damage some of the internals. I have hid and the movable projectors (afs i think its called)....

Lexus ES 2007-12 :: Emergency Blinkers Come On When Headlights Turned On?

I have an '07 ES 350 and recently I ran into this problem where my emergency blinkers would turn on and remain on when I turn on my headlights. This occurs as soon as I turn my headlights from off to any other position(auto, fogs, on) and this happens every time. I tried pressing the actual emergency light button to try and turn it off, but that didn't work. I also tried disconnecting and reconnecting the headlight from the electrical system, but that didn't solve it either.

The only way that I got the headlights to work without the emergency blinkers is by turning the brightness of the dash all the way down, so that the odometer light and all of that is completely dark. It's been fine since I bought the car 2nd hand in mid 2013 so I don't know why this is acting up all of a sudden. What's going on?

Lexus ES 2007-12 :: ES350 Low Beam Headlights Turn On Then Off Within 10 Seconds

Just had both my low beam D4S headlights replaced at an auto shop. Once I turn the car on or flick the low beam headlights on, they turn on for about 10 seconds and then the driver followed by the passenger low beam headlights turn off. Why this is happening as both bulbs are brand new. Before I had the bulbs replaced only one bulb worked so I elected to get both replaced.
