Default 07 Lexus IS250 wont start. Help please.

I turned on my car one day and it felt like it was misfiring bad. I turned it off wait a little bit and then turn it back on and it ran fine. As I was driving the next day it turned off on me. I have no check engine light. My VSC light is on. My traction control light is on. My power steering light is on. My brake light is on. The car will not turn over at all. I just installed a new battery. If I set the alarm and close all the doors for 15 minutes I can get back in it and it will crank a few times but then just stopped. I checked all my fuses and they were good and I also swept some relays around to test them out and still nothing . Any info helps thank you

could be starter. does the start button turn green when you press on the break? i had the same problem and i was able to fix it by replacing a blown fuse on passenger side 10A fuse. it was blown causing my start button to not turn green.

Default Fuel rail pressure sensor

Mine did the same thing. Just unplug it and see if it starts. The connector is behind and kinda below the upper plenum. Google for pics and location

+1, the second link I have on that post is the NHTSA pdf guide about replacing it. You should be able to just take the engine cover off and reach behind the passenger side to unhook the harness. If it doesn't start the first time, try again. If it starts now, you have a FPS problem and will need to replace it asap as you do not want to drive the car with it unplugged.
