Sup guys. Noticed a wire with a gray plug hanging from underneath my pass. side door. Kind of interferes with my door closing. Im thinking this is something used to keep the battery charged while car is in transit. Nevertheless this probably should have been cut or something upon me taking delivery of the vehicle.

At my desk right now, will try to get a picture in an hour or so.

 

i think car batteries are disconnected during transport, it poses a fire hazard if they are connected.

 

 

your door courtesy light isnt on? That looks like the plug for the door light

 

i would agree.

 

It is the courtesy light - just checked!

I hope I didn't get some POS car - that same door panel is also all discolored - leather looked like it wasn't glued or stitched to the panel correctly. Best part is got the car through a broker- they got the car from Long island - I'm in north NJ, not so close by.. Should I take my complaints to another dealer, not that kinda guy to complain to someone who didn't help me in the first place. Thoughts?

 

the gray piece is the socket that holds the bulb and snaps into the lens, the white is the actual plug.

 

hehe the forums can be so helpful at times :-P

 

for sure the plug for the courtesy light

 

how in the world did your courtesy light fall out between the door and panel?

 

now thats a good question..

maybe assembly.. maybe it was delivered that way. and that would be a shame because Lexus is too high quality for crap like that

 

I would take it to the dealer and have them take care of t considering its brand new and under warranty.

 

but that is so easy to fix yourself. only takes 5 minutes tops.

 

I would take it in. It looks like the door panel will have to be at least partially removed/pulled back. If the owner breaks anything, scratches anything, etc. it will be on him to fix. I'd rather let the dealer handle all of that.

Or maybe that's just me because it seems like I never have good luck when it comes to dealing with door panels...

 

I can't believe it came from factory that way... could it have?
