Can some one please advise how to disable flashing AFS light on 2005 LS 430 by removing the fuse.
What is the name and location of fuse?
where is the fuse box?
will removing fuse affect any other function of the car/light?
I can’t remember the exact fuse but it was located in the passenger footwell. It disabled AFS and I haven’t had any issues since. I did have to manually adjust my headlights but that wasn’t too bad..
Not very handy to replace sensor. I do not wish to spend lot of money taking it to dealer for an old 2005 car. If taking fuse out wold stop falshing AFS light without affecting the head lights in any way (other than not adjusting automatically during turns), I can live with straight/non-turning headlights as I am used to that in my other cars.
Just need to location of the fuse for AFS
Thanks.

It's literally three 10mm nuts and a plug, which you should then cover with grease to keep water out. That's it. Turned car back on, headlights gimbaled up, light went off.
It's in the left rear wheel well, which is kind of a dumb place because all the winter crap hits it. If you're flexible, you can just chock the wheels and wiggle under to get at it with a ratchet, no lift needed. I replaced mine that way, a new OEM one was $200 from a dealer liquidation. I would not recommend the Chinese knockoff, they apparently don't work well for long.
Ya it’s prolly easier than doing your oil. The star screw on the end of arm with the two ball joints is screwed onto a slot the part itself is anchored by two screws. Does the arm need to be finessed in the slot up or down for proper function ? I am just going to put it where the star screw sat on slot last time to start. New did the 2 ***** have grease in the rubber boots? Thanks. I will shoot a picture when I install next week
If my rusty ol LS took 200 k to corrode out the part I highly suggest replacements with bone yard parts from in this case California. 53 bucks after eBay bucks to my door light instantly off
