It was part of the RX forum... https://www.clublexus.com/forums/rx-...-pictures.html
But I agree with lonfrank... go to the dealer and have them reprogram the CBEST and DRLs

Well they are fibbing about "unable to turn off - standard Operation" or maybe they just don't know how... It posted the service bulletin in another thread: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sc-...-my-02-sc.html here on club lexus... go to page 7 of 9 of the document.
After that it's up to you.

Save it for the next maintenance service. Show'em the bulletin... they'll be embarrassed about their lie and just do it for you. There's really no cost involved, just a couple of minutes of a tech's time to get plugged in and make the changes.

Can't vouch for these folks... but a simple google search on the part number found this:
http://www.toyotapartszone.com/oem/t...084-98032.html
wasn't one of the other solutions in the RX thread just to insulate one or two of the relay spades?

when i asked them to turn them off, they said they couldn't. so i searched this forum, found the service bulletin and told them exactly which setting it was. after that, they did it with no problems.

The other thread was about an RX. There's no saying Lexus uses "that specific" relay in the SC430. While i'm sure they use one, who knows what number is on it. But it has to be in one of the places in the lighting diagram above. There are any number of relays that can be used: Take a look at this site: http://bbb-carb.com/std/oem-toyota/relays.htm

Try calling your service advisor. A lot of them are very helpful and will either check it out themselves or transfer you to the service folks to answer. I also correspond a fair amount with my service advisor via email. Their email address ought to be on their business card.
