Default No Sound from Radio

The sound from my radio suddenly went out. All I get is a continuous beeping sound. Everything works but their is no sound. Prior to going out I was using my Bluetooth. Any ideas on the problem?

You need a new amp. Call the dealer in the morning.

Yep, you were right dimapb it was the amp. And yes SuperLS, I gotta wait ten days. Damn. At least I remembered to tell them to unplug the amp so I won't have to hear that beeping noise.

huh? Is this a "common" problem for the LS460 that tends to break down?

if u have to wait long while u get to dealer ship, try disconecting amplifier yourself, cause while driving and it is fried it gets VERY hot...

it is in the trunk in the right side if I am not wrong about the sides..

Had the same Amp failure within my first year. Amp was replaced and no recurrent issues so far. Relatively common and well documented.

Default Some noise from sound boxes

My car is Lexus LS460L,C/N is JTHGMY6F 775017315.I have some problem there is no audio sound coming but there is some noise from all sound boxes while driving.
The light in the silent,start button and door are on and off again and again.
When I check in local workshop, the amplifier (Mark Levin son)was very hot.
After disconnecting amplifier and socket the car become normal but the audio does not work properly.
Please guide me what error is and how to repair.

Alvin, you need to get the amp replaced. It should be under warranty.

Yangon? They sell Lexus LS in Myanmar?
