Replace the worn brake pads. If that has been done, then the warning lamp needs to be reset ... best leave that to an authorized dealer. On a 1998 LS400 (perhaps all other years too), there is a "closed-circuit" wire that is clipped onto the brake pads. It is located and designed in such a way that when there is plenty of pad left, the closed-circuit wire is simply left alone. However, when the pad wears down close to its end, this wire ends up touching the spinning rotor, thus becoming an "open-circuit" and then trips the computer, telling you that you need brake service. This wire, when new pads are inserted, now returns to a closed circuit because it is not touching the rotor. BUT, if you either 1. wait too long to change pads while the warning light is on, or 2. have had multiple brake jobs, THEN this wire will end up rubbing against the rotor and thus break / wear through. With a broken wire, the brake light will remain on, unless you either solder a new piece of similar gauge wire to replace the missing piece, OR purchase a new sensor assembly. I did a simple solder, and it works perfectly, and didn't cost me any $. ALSO, before trying this method, try disconnecting the battery for a minute or two. I don't recall for sure, but it may be possible that the brake light will turn off with this battery reset. If the light still stays on, then try checking the sensor wires on the front wheels. Don't forget it's a good idea to always disconnect the battery before doing any work; especially when performing this type of repair / soldering. I hope this helps you.
You can access the brake light bald through the trunk compartment. Remove the trunk liner from the tail light assembly. Push the brake light connector in and turn at the same time. The brake lightbulb will come out. Reverse the process to install the new brake light
1991 Lexus ls400 hard steering at ilde rack &pump have been replace all screencleaned or removed.
The brake light assembly can be access through the cargo compartment. Remove the cover to the brake light assembly. Take hold of the brake light connector, push in and turn at the same time. The brake light will come out. Reverse the process to install the new brake light.
Remove the wiring harness from the high mount brake light. Remove the back cover of the brake light assembly. Take hold of the brake light connector, push in and turn at the same time. Reverse the process to install the new brake light.
could be the relay, fuse, wiring, many other issues... that is a very unexplainable question... is the check engine light on? do you have power? write back to me and ill help you.
probably have to have a Lexus dealer turn it off
No , the rear brake lights do not turn on when you use your parking brake , just the brake light on your dash is supposed to come on
In many cases, the brake light and the turn signal use the same bulb.
If it is a single bulb, it is probably the bulb. Many tail light bulbs have two separate filaments, with the turn/brake being much brighter than the marker light. The tail light and turn/brake circuits are completely separate.
Brake light, on your 2000 Chrysler Concorde, by accessing it from the inside of the trunk. Take hold of the brake light, push in and turn. The brake light will come out.
Brake lights only come on when you press the pedal. The brake light is either a different bulb or filament in a dual-filament bulb than the tail light.
Above the brake pedal. If your main brake lights dont work but your third center brake light does, then the brake light switch is not the problem. Its is the turn signal switch.
