2001 Lexus GS430 Blue-Tooth
Hi folks,
When I activate my I-phone blue tooth feature while in my car, the phone is picking up a blue tooth signal. When I try to connect, an error message pops up on my iphone which asks me to turn on the blue tooth feature in the car. Unfortunately, I can't find anything on the dash or navigation that would turn the blue tooth on.
I was always under the impression that there was no way that my 2001 had blue tooth capability, but if my phone is picking up a signal, it's making me thing that maybe someone installed something aftermarket.
Any ideas here?
Thanks

Do you still have the previous owner contact info? You can probably give him a call/text/e-mail to find out.
Do you see a small microphone any where close by,usually it's behind the steering wheel,that should confirm if the is a bluetooth capability.

Let us know what you find out. NO 2nd gen GSs came with bluetooth stock. It' got to be aftermarket.

Since it's not obvious to me, I'm planning on swinging by a car stereo/alarm place and see if they can have a look. There's got to be something transmitting this blue-tooth signal to my phone.
