New owner and loving it. After 10 to 20 miles driving the Warning light starts to flash and the system goes u/s. If I stop, turn off and restart it clears and works again for another 10 to 20 miles...Any ideas?
the SEARCH tool really is terrific for finding answers. I just typed in AFS on the standard search and came up with several prior threads with two possible solutions.

Lexus's Intelligent Adaptive Front Lighting System, is a driver-aid that adjusts the direction of the headlights in response to steering inputs and vehicle speed, in effect pointing the low-beam headlights into the corner and improving your view. 2006 and greater SC430s.
Two issues regarding AFS switch and speed of the vehicle. Switch has what some might consider reverse or backwards operation. See position two & three in the diagram.
Adaptive Front Lighting is AFS, u/s Means Unserviceable, a posh way of saying, not working
It sounds like this would be a good time to ask if you have ever heard of Techstream? That is the Toyota software that will let you read Lexus/Toyota error codes. It is very affordable if you buy it off eBay.
If you are interested in fixing this problem yourself (or just about any problem with your Lexus) you should do a search on this forum and find out how you can get a copy.
