Big grey fuse. It's right next to the battery. Is about 10 fuses in 1. About 150$... they better pay for it. The dealer did the same to mine, have me a loaner for the day and replaced it no charge. Good luck

It should look like this. ..

With only 245 hp on tap, the GS 300 with its 3.0 V6 is a stone. The slowest 3rd gen GS ever made, and with AWD it feels like you're towing a boat trailer. It has no power, even when it starts and runs.

The more I looked at the fuseiable link it was OK. The battery was fried so I put a new one in and it automatically started cranking over but wouldn't start. I pulled out the starter fuse so it wouldn't keep cranking and went into the car and put the obd2 scanner on and the scanner error codes were crankshaft position sensors were bad so I cleared the error codes and hit the start button on car and everything went dead. When I pushed the start button again. It said it couldn't detect the key. Anyone have any ideas?
