1997 Lexus LS400. How do I disable my immobilizer.
Question edited for clarity, full 'year MAKE model'.
Question moved to Year Model category.
You can't! You have to fix the problem not find a way around it.
You have a Lexus not an 1981 Chrysler. I have an ES330. Your antitheft system is protecting your vehicle to stop precisely what you are trying to do, drive the car without the correct credentials. You have a transponder chip in the key, a receiver in the steering column, alarm sensors, the antitheft module, the Body Control Module, the Engine Control Module, and all the break-in sensors on hood, trunk, doors, and inside the vehicle all protecting you against theft.
You need an auto electrician, the dealership, or an auto locksmith / alarm installer with a pro grade scan tool computer to check the system and find out why it isn't working. If you lost all three keys, the dealership can make a key based on the VIN Number. Get one and then get the auto locksmith to make another and program both.

Key won't open locked doors. Can't get into car.
does it not unlock any of the doors? if it doesnt unlock any doors run down to the dealer and give them your vin number they will be able to cut you a key based on that. make sure you take your registration to prove you own the car. fortunately your car is the first gen ls400 because if it was much newer it would have had to had a key programmed to start it. keys at the dealer shouldnt be too much but if they are too expensive, just snag a blank off ebay they are only about 10 bucks. good luck!
Gluster gauge won't illuminate
Hello hayeizmyhome...Very low mileage for a 1990 model. However... this is usually around the mileage interval the dreaded instrument cluster, panel and dash light failures start...lights will flicker, then go out, gauges will start going up and down, lcd's will become hazey and hard to read....etc.
The instruments are illuminated both day and night while the ignition is on.
When the ignition is off, the panel goes dark and you can’t see the gauges at all.
The lexus has an electronic circuit board behind the inst. cluster that has been the problem. Very expensive repair if done by dealer.
*TIP* This circuit board can be repaired if you know a good electrical technician much cheaper.
The recommended timing belt replacement interval on the LS is 120k...water pump should be replaced also, the timing belt runs the water pump. The LS has a non-interference engine, meaning if the belt breaks, no damage will be done to the engine...
Hope this answers your questions..and your lexus runs for many more miles...with proper care and maintainnace, it will.
1995 Lexus 400 instrument cluster light not working
While the instrument clusters in all the 1995 ls-400 look the same, they are not created equal. They use different part numbers for the same model year. So the repair depends on the cluster part number itself because different part numbers, means they have different circuits boards, and different parts inside, and this includes the numbering of the capacitor locations inside. So the idea of "which capacitor to look for" depends on the particular circuit board version or part number you have. Incidentally, the "capacitor repair" fix you see on the web to repair the burned out cluster lights issue doesn't apply to the 1995 instrument cluster. It applies to the 1994 and earlier instrument cluster. Similarly, you can't put a 1997 cluster inside a 1995 ls400 because the blue plug on the cluster is a different size. So it's critical the part number of the cluster needs to be identified before you can repair or replace one. The 1995 ls400 could have an instrument cluster with part number 83010-50592 or 83010-50590 or 83010-50600 etc... Instrument clusters are not simply interchangeable with ones with different part numbers either, because the vehicle ECU is programmed to only work with the specific cluster part number that originally came with the vehicle.Also Lexus dealers are no longer replacing these because the part is no longer manufactured. However, you can get them repaired. Search the web for "lexus ls400 instrument cluster repair"Location of part #... This one is 83010-50600...
