Howdy folks, recently I’ve noticed some weird things happening with my 01 LX470.
It’s a backup vehicle for me so it doesn’t get driven so much these days. For the last year or so if I leave it for more than 48 hours the battery dies and I have to jump it. Whenever I jump it my alarm goes off. Then I noticed 3 weeks ago that if I lock it from the drivers door instead of with the remote, the battery will hold a charge just fine.
I also noticed that when I press the lock button on the door with a door open, the truck doesn’t auto unlock to keep me from locking my keys in the car. And I haven’t tried with the front doors, but if a rear door is open it beeps if I try and lock from the remote. The tailgate doesn’t do that.
