To replace the thermostat in a 1997 Lexus LS400, first, ensure the engine is cool and disconnect the negative battery cable. Drain the coolant by removing the drain plug from the radiator, then remove the upper radiator hose and the thermostat housing. Take out the old thermostat, clean the mating surfaces, install the new thermostat with the correct orientation, reassemble the housing and hoses, refill the coolant, and finally reconnect the battery. Always check for leaks and ensure the engine reaches operating temperature.
