Lexus RX 2010-15 :: Inner Taillights Won't Light Up With Headlights Switched On
Sep 11, 2013
I have a 2010 RX450H and recently I've noticed the inner taillights (the portion that is stuck on the boot door) fails to light up when the headlights are switched on. At times I give it a nudge and it seems to work again. I'm guessing it's a loose connector somewhere. I tried look at the boot door but couldn't figure out how to get to the taillights. Is it even worth my trouble to attempt fixing it myself or should I send it in to the dealer to have it looked it.

Fuel pump went out, took it to garage to have it fixed. Got it back...now I have no headlights, taillights, or dash lights. I have turn signals, break lights, and brights. I've checked fuses under the hood, and on both sides. Replaced them all twice just to be sure. I've changed the ignition switch and the multi-function switch. I'm at a loss!

Should the garage door opener buttons (1 through 3) light up at night with the headlights, etc. on...? I
'm thinking they should and I'm missing a "turn on" somewhere.
They are very hard to see in the dark.

My 2010 Lexus RX350 doesn't perform the complementary dinging warning when the lights are left on. Every car I've ever had, and even the Lexus loaners I get, dinging if I leave the lights on. This car? No.
The dealer is saying this is "by design" because it has auto off lights. That doesn't make sense, since the loaners all ding when I leave the lights on (yes, I checked).
What do I tell them to turn on to make this work the way "all other" vehicles work? I found something called "Light Remind" in "C Best Settings"
Warning LIGHT REMIND ON/OFF of headlight reminder buzzer ON/OFF ... Is this applicable to the 3rd Gen 2010 Lexus RX350? Also, is there some way I can do it myself?
This is in reference to having a warning when lights are in the "On" position. In the "Auto" position, it would seem reasonable that there is no warning. But in the "On" position, it seems reasonable to have the alert.

I have a '93 Accord SE and am having a problem with the headlights not lighting when switched on. All other lights, etc., appear to work; the dash, running lights, etc. I have had instances where the headlights would blink on/off a couple times before staying on, but now they just do not come on at all.
When they blinked, it was both lights together, which would lead me to believe this is not an issue with poor connections (corrosion), or the switch itself, but rather wiring related. Just a guess.

Bought my 1st VW 2003 4 Motion W8. Love it! Headlight problems though. It's equipped with Bi Xenon lights? Thought they were just called xenon, but not sure. Drivers side comes on when car is started, but not passenger. This is with switch off and the drl light is on. Passenger side doesn't come on when lights are switched on. But if i turn the car off and back on both headlights light up. When both lights work when turned on neither work when turned off but i believe they should be on for daytime running lights. I have noticed the drivers side light(the one that works all the time)is very white in color and the pass side which is hard to get on is blue in color. High beams work normal. Do i need to change pass bulb?

I have a 2003 Supercrew that does not have daytime running lights/automatic lights. However, when I start my truck, there's about a 2-5 second delay, I hear a relay click and my headlights come on even when the lights are switched to off. I pulled the dash apart. There is no sensor, relay or anything. Looked under the hood, there's no hint of anything for auto headlights or daytime running lights. I don't really care too much that the lights come on by themselves, especially in broad daylight. Can I get some leads on what to chase down in order to get these lights to stop coming on automatically?

My 02 F-350, running lights and fog lights work fine but when I switch to headlights everything goes dark. Neither high beams or low beams work. Checked the light switch and its fine. Haven't found any blown fuses and headlight bulbs look fine.

I have a 2012 Prius 3 and just noticed yesterday that I have some condensation on the inside of my Taillights. It's been raining and cold around here lately but I park my car in the garage. You could see it in the pics below....

I have HID low beams and Halogen high beams on my 2015 RX 350. I'd like to set the HID low beams just a touch higher. The manual shows where the adjustment screws are located, but does not indicate which way (clockwise or counter-clockwise) to turn the screw to raise the position of the headlight. Yes I could just start turning one way or the other to figure it out...

I have a 2010 Prius 4. The heated seats are real hot when first switched on. After about 3-4 min the passenger seat appears to either switch down to a low setting or switch itself off (can't really tell if it's on a low setting or if it's off completely). The light on the switch remains on.

Last week I switched my wheels and tires out from OEM 15 x 6 wheels with 195/55R15 Good Year Fuel Max tires to 16 x 7 Drag DR9 wheels (16.55 lbs.) with 205/50R16 Good Year Fuel Max tires. ( I wanted a different look) At first I didn't notice any change in mpg's, but that soon changed. The temps went down into the 20's for lows and 30's for highs. I went from 48 - 50 mpg to 41 -43 mpg in just a few days. I assumed that the drop was due to the cold weather. This morning I decided to check the tire pressure in the new tires. 32 psi all the way around. I asked the guys that installed the tires to fill them up to 44 front, 42 rear. I guess that never happened. Anyway, I looked on the sidewall of the tire to check max pressure and I was shocked (51 psi). I ran 44 front, 42 front on my old set, because that was what I was advised to do.

My headlights are like a dying flashlight. I recently attempted to plug in LED lights and tapped into the parking light directly above the high beams. This caused my pass HID to not work, which then I put both stock bulbs in. Both headlights are on now but at a super low brightness. Any clues on what I should check? There are no warning lights on . All lights function as should just not enough power going to the headlights.

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.

Noticed a weird metallic rattling noise coming from the transmission when switched to N with the engine running and the car is stationary? Almost like the gears are rattling inside while in N position. I took it to the dealer and their Prius guru said this is normal characteristic of eCVT....

I bought my Prius in November 2010. I replaced my headlights about three months ago when the right one went out. It went out again a few days ago. Then suddenly the diver side went out 2 days later. I also noticed that the right side parking light is out. The only lights that work are the high beams. I did check the fuses.

I have 2007 GX 470 and recently I noticed that head lights are running during the day light time and it is set up for Auto Lights (I own this car for the past 5 years and it was never an issue). Is there any quick fix or...?

To install my FLIR system I need a 12V power supply, ideally switched with my Gen III's ignition switch. Where in the engine compartment can I find that?

Even when switched to auto in total darkness, the lights do not come on. We have to manually do it every time. We've had this 2007 with 60k on it for around 3 months and the auto feature didn't work when we got it

So, driving home from the meet & greet in DC yesterday and when I turned on the headlights, the auto-leveling light came on. It randomly came and went for a bit but was on continuously by the time we got home. Headlights work and are at the correct height. Lights cycle up/down when the key is turned. Other than the warning light, it appears to be working normally.
Of note, this was the first time using the lights after the airbag actuator recall last week. Not sure how it could be connected unless it is a dash connection issue. If not,how to isolate if or which sensor is causing the issue?

My dome light won't illuminate when I open any door. I converted the dome light, courtesy lights and map lights to LED's about a year ago. I reinstalled the original bulb in the dome fixture to see if that would clear it up. Same thing. I can get the light to work if I switch it to "always on". I checked to make sure the dimmer switch on the dash was turned on, and it is. Any guesses?
