Card key and folding mirror question (1 Viewer)

[airforce1]

So, as other MUD members may recall, I've had card key programming issues with a refurbished OEM card key for my '08 LX570.

Just wanted to double check before I buy a new one....Looking at lexus parts now, it has 2 options:

89904-50641 Genuine Lexus Part

Genuine 89904-50641 Electrical Key Transmitter Sub-Assembly (Card Key) fits 2007-2009 Lexus LS460, LX570. LexusPartsNow offers 8990450641 for $290.75.

www.lexuspartsnow.com

89904-50641 which is then replaced by 89904-50642

Both are available for my 1/2008 production LX. Is it better to just get the updated version?

Second, I have an intermittent issue with my right folding mirror for both closed and open condition. It can open sometimes, it can close sometime.

How can you tell if it is an actuator problem or gear issue or motor?


Appreciate all the assist everyone

For the keycard. I think you need HYQ14ABB. Also, if buying it used make sure that it is unlocked and/or "virgin"
