Quick question: My brake fuse keeps popping when I depress the brake pedal, even with the key off. When I disconnect the connector in the picture (you can see the green with white brake wire) and depress the pedal, nothing happen - the fuse does not pop. Does this mean the bad wire is further...

Does this connector look normal? I imagine dielectric grease was used at some point. But it looks weird and yellow. Maybe water contamination? (I’m dealing with water intrusion into my drivers side floorboards). I think this connector has the brake/stop fuse connected to it. Thanks!!

Question: Does the sunroof drain hose connect to an outlet at the floorboard back under the gaggle of wires? If so, how do you reconnect it? There’s no room to fit a hand in there. I keep getting wet drivers side floor and end up blowing my brake / stop fuse. Suggestions? Thanks!

Did you use the simply speakers kit to refoam? How did it go?

One toasted ecu. Problem is the one plug is partially fused into its socket. Hopefully I can dissect it out.

I was just checking to see if had the wiring diagrams. Apparently...it's one pdf I don't have in my folders. So...can I just disconnect connectors B7 and B8...and will I be able to drive the car back to my house so that I can do the full repair? There's doesn't seem to be any major stuff...

Thanks Josh...pretty much what I was thinking. Question...would/could a short in the courtesy wiring in the running boards easily cause the ecu to burn out? I would think a fuse would burn out before the ecu fried. I wouldn't think it could be the other way around (ecu causing the lighting to...

Today I parked my '01 LX470...and noticed smoking coming from the front end of the passenger side running board (I keep the running boards because my elderly father in law needs them to get in the vehicle). Definitely a rubber/plastic burning smell. I didn't see any fire...so I decided to try...

Great work. I'm seriously considering using your ideas for a rack. Thanks for posting.

Will a 100LC upper fit an LX? I'm interested. Thx.

I'm looking for a rust free (as possible) upper tailgate that will fit a 2001 LX470. Color code: Mystic Sea Opalescent 6S5. Thanks! Dave.

Thanks *PADDO - master of the AHC!

I'm getting ready to replace my FL height control sensor (the old one's bracket broke). I haven't been able to determine if there's any specific calibration that needs to be done while/after installing? It looks pretty easy to bolt the new one on but there is the slot at the top nut that...

I'm in the same boat....did you get the info regarding your sensor question? I'm looking for a decent shape front left sensor. Thanks.

Anyone have an idea? Plus I think I remember reading on here somewhere where the bracket bolts can be pain to remove...especially if there any rust underneath.
