I disconnected the negative end of the battery for about 7 mins. Reconnected and started my ES300h 2016. The system rebooted after the update and everything was back to normal. Turned off the car and restarted, no issues. Works as normal.

I stopped by my Lexus dealer this morning. They had a separate line for navigation resets. It took less than 10 minutes. The only thing lost was the digital clock on the dash behind the steering wheel.

The dealer said they have done about 300 since the last day and a half. It was very efficient and fast.

Say what? When did they add that???

The 2016 RX I had as a loaner had a digital clock on the display between the speedo dials so I guess that's a new thing.

Seems strange to have two clocks, but I guess some people don't know how the read the analog one.

Oh it was the biggest gripe. You should have seen the uproar when the 4GS debuted and owners realized the digital clock was replaced by the beautiful analog one.

Took me a while to find the 12V, had to look at the picture in the Manual (it's in the trunk on the starboard side, under a plastic cover, FYI), but 5 minutes disconnecting the 12V worked fine for my 300h hybrid.

Guys can you please share the steps on where the battery is and what to disconnect?

On the ES300h the 12 volt battery is in the trunk on the right side behind a plastic cover that easily pulls away from the battery. You need to disconnect the negative (black) cable for a minute or two then reattach it.
