Default Need a Lil help getting a SC400 to start *Details inside*

Hey everyone, earlier this year i traded my lexus to a friend of mine and he's having problems with it right now. Actually it's been having problems for a while now. The car will not start or hold a charge. I did have it dropped on MKIV Eibachs and there was constant rubbing so the wires in the driverside was damaged but we tried to fix them to best of our abilities.

However the battery light still comes on, the car still shuts off sporadically and we changed the battery and alternator. Still the same issue. My friend is stationed down south right now and needs the car up and running so he can take it down there. He's willing to pay someone to come check out the car and see what they can do to get it up and running. The car is located in Queens. Any questions feel free to let me know and ill pass the information along. He's having issues with his phone currently.

Contact Information:
Name: Tony
Number: 347-282-3499

My name's Ray btw.

Hey man, sorry I dont have an answer to your question but I do have a suggestion. Post your question in the SC300/400 forum you will get a quicker response and likely someone who has possibly experienced the same issue. There are ton of experienced people monitoring the forum for issues just like yours.

Good luck.
