Ok. Wow. That was it? I'm not that big of an electrical whiz when it comes to cars, but I do know that the battery can't be modified. Second if your car was able to have flashing lights in the clusters and they weren't dimmed then the battery was fine. If I were you I would call and find out what really happened.

Default Here is the solution! Try it!

Hi

I had the same trouble last september or october. Our lexus dealer say to try to have both fob near of the start button and start the car (hold start button until you heard 2 or 3 "bip"). Then after that, the car start sometime and sometime not. I tested it next day and all worked like new and it never happen again!
