NAVI issues! touch screen not working!
I turned the lex on this morning and it didnt respond when i pushed i agree! Ive searched and i found a couple threads but they arent too recent. I hope i dont have to replace the screen. Anyone find out a way to solve this problem? I dont have warranty, and ive disconnected the battery. POS screen.

your screen digitizer probably went kaput.
if its under warranty obviously bring it in. Otherwise you'll have to scour around for just the screen. Buying a complete navigation replacement will also fix the problem. But it sounds like you only need a new screen.
When I shorted my nav out, I bought a replacement which came with another screen. Another fella complained of a similar issue, so I offered to sell him my extra screen. Later he tells me that it worked perfectly and all was well.
So I would start there.

from a stealership? theres no telling. I sold mine for 200 or less (i forget)....i was only looking to get rid of parts though.
I would start by scowering ebay and searchin on terms like is250 nav or is350 nav.
You might get lucky.

This happened to me a couple weeks ago. Lucky I was under warranty, but they ended up replacing the entire nav system - (cost them $2000!!!). I did some research and this seems to be a VERY common problem - especially in hot climates (I'm in Phoenix).

The navi on my 2001 GS300 went out about weeks ago, but the touch screen on the radio and everything else worked alright. I took it in for my 120k major service and they told me the navi computer was dead and a new one is $8k or a refurbished is $2400. I laughed at them and said it's not work it. Can't I go to a bestbuy and buy a new navi for $400-$500?

Sorry folks, I didn't realize I was replying in the IS line until after I sent the reply. You'll have to forgive me as that was my first reply. I'm a newbi. Take care.
