Just a thought
Was your RX new or purchased from someone who had a custom install of a radar/laser detector. My dealer installed a hidden system on my LX that used two blue lights for front and rear radar detectors hidden behind the front and rear bumper.
If they are not on all the time, go park infront of a retail store that has auto opening doors and they should blink like crazy.

I checked mine but no such blue lights.... Must be a custom job as there is nothing in the plastic piece that shows a light could be fitted there from the factory as a special option.

Sorry people that I haven't been here at all. Totally forgot what those blue lights were since it was traded in for a white 2013 RX450h 5 years ago! I know, shame on me. Since there have been other 'weird staff' happening to this 2013, or may be not so 'weird' after I have checked in here and done some reading. All I can say is this is the best forum for everything Lexus, and sorry not to pursue (Lexus of Queens) for an answer about those blue lights on my ex 450h. Now let me continue reading from others about the same problems I have with this '13s. Thanks.

Same Problem
Our 2016 RX450h has intermittent blue lights (above the speedo & hybrid power gauge). Thought I was imagining it at first, but in fact the lights are on for a while, turn off, then come on again at random. Has nothing to do with bumps in the road or any other such conditions. Guess it's morse code saying "trade in your car now". LOL!
