Center wood panel with radio open close button
#16
I am confused.... did you not find the wire at all?
Seems like mine was coming from the behind the radio. I broke the connection when I pulled it out and had to hot glue it in place. If I recall it went back and to the left.

So while I was doing my media installation, I noticed that my wood panel button stopped working altogether. I almost freaked out, but then I just pushed the wires into the connector with some force, thinking maybe i "stretched" it too much when removing the center console. It started working again. Maybe an easy fix before removing it completely and buying a new one for some ungodly amount from Lexus; try to just push the wires in to reestablish contact. Otherwise the whole switch does remove as one whole unit. It has two tabs on the side that push in, and then you can bench test it as well as the 2 contact harness that powers it. As a side note, I do believe the harness that is on the underside of the wood grain center console (near gear selector) might have to be connected for this switch to be active.

Shawn you're right. I just opened it up. Pulled out that wire and found a connection socket. So i'm all ready for the purchase although ive been considering the $120 investment.

I am confused now. I would like to order this part from Sewell, but cannot figure out how to use the CL discount. I called Sewell, and the nice lady on the phone said I should insert my CL member number in the order somewhere. She said that is what she always tells people when they ask. I tried my member login name in the discount code area, but that didn't work. Can someone please help?
At the very top of the page register where you see login/register
Discount will automatically be applied.
If you've already put something in your cart you will have to log off and log back on first, then put it in your cart for the discount to take.

That Sewell Parts page for their discount seems to have changed. How does one get their discount now?
I, too, need to order this wood door button switch. 84931B aka 8493124030
My wood door button is missing, but the door switch operated if I inserted a screwdriver. Then it stopped working.
Recently noticed the cig lighter does not work and I may have read somewhere that the cig lighter and stereo
wood door switch are on the same circuit. Is there a fuse somewhere, or another possible reason they'd stop working?
Apparently that small button is attached to the $130 switch and not available separately.

I don't think Sewell is active anymore (But I haven't checked) You can use http://MYLParts.com They are a Club Lexus sponsor and they offer a 10% discount
You can probably buy a used assembly cheaper than buying the switch. Goto Ebay and do a search for sc430 ashtray

As far as the fuse goes, read this post:

10% discount! Was hoping for like 60% (they can certainly afford it), but whatever. Is there a trick to qualifying for that 10%?
Visited my Lexus dealer down the road for an upper radiator hose clamp. They wanted $36 but luckily were out of stock.
Odd since that hose clamp is common to 10 Lexus models and would be needed for just about any radiator work. The other
three dealers in my area had it in stock for $13.85 with shipping, with shipping being more than half the total cost. Not even
overnight shipping either.
The fuse thread was good and thanks for that. Did not see anything about the wood door switch on the same circuit so I may
be mistaken they're on the same circuit. One way to find out.
Them's some good looking wheels on your silver SC.

Sewell changed their website years ago unfortunately. They used to be very helpful to club members, not to mention a bit of a discount. That's all gone now.

Try DiscountPartsMonster. They are a Lexus dealer in Florida and have the lowest prices.
I recently ordered pads and rotors and one rotor wasn't included. One email later it was on its way. So I had a good experience.
One thing to do is put items in the cart and go through the process where you put your email. If you don't complete the transaction they will probably email you a discount code.
