i have a 97sc300, i recently changed my brake booster and once that happened all things happened

1. tilt function on steering wheel is no longer working (had a littile issue when pressing the button to adjust the wheel downward but never upward or outward),now it is completely dead.

2. alarm is not working via remote and also by inserting key in drivers door.

3. when i put the key ignition i dont hear the "ding ding ding" sound which indicates keys are in the ignition or when your drivers door is open etc.....

4. the doorlock button is not responsive, so if i need to lock drivers door i have to manually flip the switch to the right(hiding the red mark) to lock the door.....fyi the passenger door(same thing)

5. clock at cluster keeps resetting everytime i turn off the car. the sets back to 1pm.
6. the door panel light is not working on both driver and passenger side
7. the ceiling light is not working either. on or door option, is not working.
8. the light over the pedel is not on either.

im losing my mind here because i did not have any issues before, 2 days before i changed my booster, my car light was left on and it burned up the battery over night. next day i recharged the battery and i was good as new. i did not notice any problems. it was after i fixed the break booster. guys what do you think

I'm not even in the ballpark of expert, but it sounds like you shorted something out while working on your car. Have you checked all the fuses? If so I'm as lost as you.

anyone else??

The best thing I can suggest is retrace all of your steps when you changed your booster. You could of unplugged a wiring harness. Check all wiring plugs under the hood and dash, where you was working. That's what it sounds like to me.

Insure that the Brake Fluid Sensor connector is plugged into the Brake Booster, Did you reconnect the connector that is on the master cylinder?

It almost sounds like a grounding issue. Lexus uses the same grounding points for several circuits and not reconnecting one point could effect other circuits. All the circuits that are now not working, worked before the removal of the brake booster, right?

Yes they were working....

Did you check the connectors?

it's just the Dome fuse in the engine bay, change it, you should be good.

^^^ This . I wonder if OP had checked the fuses as Munch517 suggested.

That is the common fuse for most if not all the problems you have stated, looking at all the wiring diagrams .

You are right, I just pulled the Dome Fuse out of mine and got the same symptoms. Thanks, thats good information to know.

10A Dome fuse is at the fusebox in the engine bay. It has a label "10A Dome"
