Hi all. Took the truck (06 LX470) out of storage. AHC was working fine initially, as I was checking the oil I noticed a bit of smoke coming from the AHC motor plug. Next day car was on bump stops and AHC off light is flashing. Figured the motor was going so installed a new motor and pressure sensor. No luck unfortunately.
I’ve read through many of the posts and following some of the suggestions. Was curious if anyone had experienced the smoke issue. Image attached, hard to see but smoke was coming out of the area circled. Thanks in advance to guidance anyone could provide.

For safety, disconnect your battery terminals first, then clean the area with a parts cleaner aerosol. Let it dry, connect the battery again and observe periodically after you drive it. Hopefully there is no leak from the reservoir, and that damp area was just maybe from an accidental fluid spilled during the pour process.
