Default AHC error code

The OFF indicator on the dash is flashing and has locked me out of the system. I'm wondering if this has happened to anybody and how much is it going to be to fix it. I've got an appointment with the Lexus Stealer on Monday. Any input appreciated.

TIA

Did you check your fluid level? I would try a fluid change and see if that had any effect. Cheaper than any of the parts on the system. Let us know what you find.

Ed, how are your accumulators holding up? I know you had them recharged a while back.

The accumulators are holding up just fine. The ride is still buttery smooth and *fingers crossed* I expect it to stay that way. So far the rears are holding up without having to be replaced. I must have got to the system just in time before critical system damage. I do plan on flushing the system (a partial flush in my driveway using lexus hydro fluid) sometime soon.
