Default 2006 IS350 Gauge cluster is LIGHT UP (Check engine,afs, slip)

So I'm new to Lexus and i"m having a few problems with my IS350. I bought it used and knew it had these problems but not taking these issues seriously I'm starting to get annoyed cause my cluster looks like a Christmas tree. So here's what is going on;

1. Wipers only work in HIGH mode FIXED
2. AFS light is on (which i found a link after searching on how to fix, balance the bushing bolt)
3. Turn signals don't work at all, but hazard do.FIXED
4. Steering telescope does not function from **** at all. FIXED
5. High beam does not work FIXED
6. The Triangle "!" is showing up red solid and on.
7. the SLIP light is on
8. Check engine light on, scanned and found P043 Cat bank 2 issues

Any help would be great! Car's got 62K on it, salvage tittle, 2006. I only bought it for the killer deal, but it looks like its going to kill me!

Thanks

Not sure...but I think "salvage title" should be a hint.... Good luck and I hope someone can find solutions.

Thanks for the reply lol. Not much help, but i know what you mean. Salvage is an issue. I was however able to solve some items.

1. wiper blades
2. turn signals
3. horn
4. telescope (steering)

You took the risk with a salvage title car - while some can have just superficial damage, others have huge issues.

Have someone with a TIS Techstream do a health check on your car - what this does is check every system in the car since you have CAN bus linking the powertrain and body control systems together. Aftermarket scanners - even expensive SPX-OTC ones don't have the same functions the OEM Toyota one has.

Thanks for the help buddy. I was able to solve all the electrical issues today with my Tech from Toyota who came over after work.

If it's p0430 for catalyst efficiency below threshold then you need a cat for that bank
