On the brake light issue try replacing the brake switch behind the pedal. It is only like around $25.00 bucks or so. Could be the problem and many Toyota/Lexus vehicles have this same sensor. I am wondering if this sensor is tied into this problem????
Not sure on the other.... Do you mean the lights on the cluster and climate control? How are you turning them off now? Disabling the battery?
Yes the gauge lights, I havent had time to play with it yet but this week I will. If it were the relays causing the problem how much am I looking at when it comes to repairs? Ok I will try resetting the ECU by leaving the negative battery post of for 5 Minutes Ill let you know if that works.
