Just to update: I finally got around to listing my GX. It sold in about 4 weeks for 6500 dollars. I listed it on Auto Trader. The first couple of days all I got were scammers. Also got a couple of time wasters that asked me a ton of questions and called me back and forth multiple times...

Thanks for the advice btw my son lives in Hilliard, looks like a nice town.

Thanks for the response. I have all the records since I owned it. This was the top of the line sport version with the ML sound system and KDSS hydraulics. It does have the sat nav which is not very good. I did most of the work myself except for the frame repairs/welding and have a couple of...

Thanks for the response. I don't really know what its worth but its not 2500. The repaired frame is the variable. I want to price it fairly. Its never been off road, well maintained.

I’m looking to get some advice on pricing my 2005 GX470 with KDSS. It’s in pretty good condition with 185,000 miles. I was only offered 2500 on trade so I have decided to sell it myself. The car is well maintained but I did have to have the frame professionally repaired because of rust. It...

Did some needed rust repair this weekend. Used Eastwood rust encapsulator. Let see how it holds up

I replaced my dash 2 years ago it was cracked all over, I also had a AC leak that I traced back to the evaporator core. Overall not a bad job just take lots of pictures. Move the seats all the way back or remove them so you have more room. I posted my work on club lexus under same name. Good...

Happy to report ALL FIXED. I plugged in the used yaw sensor I bought on eBay for 30 dollars. Reconnected the battery and did the zero point calibration. This time worked perfectly all lights off I think my initial mistake was not disconnecting the battery before I changed the steering shaft. At...

So here is where I’m at now. I tested the yaw rate harness according to page 05-810 of the service manual. I got 12.8 bolts when I measured voltage from ports GND to IG. I would think that means that the wiring is intact through the circuit. Going to replace the yaw rate sensor with a used one...

The blue asterisk in front of the c1234 code indicates lack of communication with the yaw sensor maybe a blown fuse or stuck relay. Maybe I need to reset some other sensor like steering angle but not giving any codes. Everything was fine before I changed the steering shaft. I hate to give up and...

Just got the Techstream hooked up and looked up the codes. Getting code c1234 yaw rate sensor. Tried to reset with test mode but so far no success can’t get the VSC VSC TRAC OFF lights to flash. The abs lights do flash. I have included the screen shots any ideas on what to do?

Thank you for your advice. I have ordered the cable for Techstream and am waiting for it to arrive. My generic code reader doesn't show anything. I think I need the speficic codes to troubleshoot any further. a little more background: When I was changing the steering shaft my battery went...

I'm now having a related problem that I can't seem to fix. My VSC OFF, TRAC OFF, and skid warning lights are on since I changed the steering shaft. After I got the alignment done I assumed redoing the Zero Point Calculation would fix the problem but I'm stuck in this process. I can't get the...

Went back in for second try this morning got it almost straight now still off slightly to the left instead of way off to the right. I’m thinking now to just take it in for alignment it was due for that anyways. Other option would be to move the steering wheel over one or two spots. Anyways...

I decided to take a chance and I replaced the intermediate steering shaft. This fixed my problem. There was a definite difference in the articulation of the U joint. Total pain in the but job to do though. Very hard to get it off the steering rack. Only problem now is that my steering pump is...
