I spoke to Lou and he confirmed what my suspicion was, which is that the harness sold by TRS was bad. I originally only swapped the relays when troubleshooting and that didn't fix the problem. Once Lou told me to swap the harness out, both lights fired up. He mentioned that you sell a heavy-duty...
It still seems to me that if bench testing works through the ballasts, that it's the relay harness that's at fault for not being capable of handling the load these ballasts/lights put on them. One thing I didn't test was unplugging one ballast from the harness and testing to see if the one...

I don't have my LX with me, but I'm pretty sure yours are just the childproof locks they use for children & criminals that sit in the back seat. Open the door up and look for a switch looking thing. It's nothing electronic. Flip that switch up or down or side to side and see if you can open from...
Tirerack.com is claiming 275/75/18 doesn't exist. You sure they're 275/75/18? Also, do they rub at all? I've never really liked the look of the LX until seeing it with those tires you have on it.
I was going for the roofrack more to throw on a lightbar like you have. I just liked how...
Are there any other suppliers for parts (ballasts, lights, & harnesses) that will work with these retrofits other than theretrofitsource? The reason I ask is because I've had 3 sets of these lights, 2 had quad-xenon's and one dual xenon's. Every single set has had issues with the lights...
Great info. Any updates? Did replacing that motor only solve your issue? $100 for brand new and motor swap only sounds way better than $2k for brand new everything.
I must have looked at my manual 3+ times, but I didn't catch it until you said that. My manual states to Replace the differential oil every 15k miles, but it has a footnote that states that should only be done if the vehicle is operated primarily in the desert, on dirt roads or towing. Given...
I told my mechanic to change my differential oil. He inspected it and "saw there was no water in it" and told me it's a waste of money to replace it. He told me if it was his vehicle, he wouldn't do it. I asked him how often he recommends I replace it then and he said every 30k to 40k miles...
I made an excel sheet that helps me keep track of performed maintenance and scheduled maintenance for my LX 470. I posted a tutorial for how to use the file here:
You can download the excel file here: 152.2 KB file on MEGA -...
EDIT: No matter how I post the link, it appears this site revises my link with a MEDIA tag, so I can't just post the link/URL for you to download. It looks like you have to open/maximize the window which brings it to a new tab and then select the download button to download it to your PC...
I just saw your message from yesterday. I updated the links in this post and my other post. See here for the file: 152.2 KB file on MEGA - https://mega.nz/file/jhl10KDL#riYGOooRHxYn70LwS0i4kVxGlqSQ5d5ENYKAaLuHrh0
I think you're the first person that's actually going to use it other than me. I've...
September 19, 2018, I purchase a Quality Power alternator: 320amp alternator for my 2007 LX 470. Yesterday, I had the following dash lights illuminate: ABS, VSC TRAC, VSC OFF, battery icon light, BRAKE. This morning, only the battery icon light was illuminated. I called my mechanic and told him...
This is not my vehicle and I don't know anything about it's condition. I found it on eBay and figured I'd share with the community since it looks so clean. If I was in the market for an LX 470, I'd be looking into this one.
