Greetings
So few nights ago something strange happened. I was driving and my radio started to flicker and then shut off. Thinking it's a fuse I kept driving and suddenly all my warning lights lit up and started to flicker and my car shut off.
When trying to start it everything just flashed and shut off. Didn't crank or anything. Even my hazard lights would work. I press it again and everything lights up but no crank. Press it again and my hazards turns off.
I just had battery replaced and when replacing they said my starter and alternator was fine.
Anyone have a similar problem or know what's wrong? Should I test alternator again? This is on an 06 is250 rwd

It sounds like the alt isn't charging the battery. Before you replaced the battery, was the old one completely dead?

Sounds similar to an issue i had, read this: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...r-problem.html

It's either battery or alternator. Check the battery again first

Since the lights and such will work, but the car won't start, sounds like the alternator is toast. There's enough juice to power the low-draw lights, but not to start the car. This is starting to happen more and more here lately! Happened to be last year actually, with VERY similar symptoms.

This happened to me a last month. Could either be a blown fuse in the fuse box, dead batt (not likely as you replaced), or dead alternator.

Regarding spark,air and fuel, if I were to change parts on this car I would install the original ones on there.

First check battery cable battery connection ground fuses if all good battery or alternator or both

Since this thread is well over a year old, I hope the OP has solved his problem
