Where is the air-filter in 1991 Lexus ls400?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

For the 1990-1994 Lexus LS 400. The air filter is on the passenger side right behind the passenger head under the hood. To access it you must use have a socket wrench and a 10 mm socket.

1. Go to the driver side under the hood near the battery. In front of the battery there a then cover that you must lift up. Once you have lifted this cover, there is a silver screw that is holding the air cover directly over the radiator. Remove the cover and then loosen the screw to take the center air cover off from over the radiator.

2. While working your way to the right, you will notice there is another cover on the passenger side. Remove this cover and you will then see the air filter. The air filter is big round and has a latch. The only way that you can access the air filter is by removing the 3 screws that hold stable to the air induction which is connected to the throttle plate.

3. Remove these screws with the same 10 mm socket and also loosen the lowest clamp on the air induction so you can take just the air filter housing out. You may have to move back and forth to wiggle out.

4. Once you have wiggled out the air filter housing, you can unlatch the air filter and then replace.

5. Then reverse the instructions to reinstall.

How do you change the keyless feature to open all four doors when one door is touched?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

KEYLESS ENTRY SYSTEM

With the keyless entry keypad, you can:

• lock or unlock the vehicle doors

without using the key.

Your vehicle has a factory set 5 digit

code that operates the keyless entry

system. You can also program your

own 5 digit personal entry code. The factory-set code is located:

• on the owner's wallet card in the glove compartment

• or at your dealer.

When pressing the controls on the keyless entry keypad, press the

middle of the controls to ensure a good activation.

This system will disable the power door lock controls. These will not

work until the vehicle is disarmed.

Programming your own personal entry code

To program your own code:

5. Enter factory set code (keypad will illuminate when pressed).

6. Press 1/2 control within five seconds of step 1.

7. Enter your personal 5 digit code.

Enter each digit within five seconds

of previous one.

8. After the code is entered, the

locks will cycle, confirming that the

new code has been set.

Do not set a code that includes five of the same number or presents

them in sequential order. Thieves can easily figure out these types of

codes.

Your personal code does not replace the permanent code that the

dealership gave you. You can use either code to unlock your vehicle. If a

second personal code is entered, the module will erase the first personal

code in favor of the new code.

Locks and Security

If you wish to erase your personal code, use the following instructions:

1. Enter factory set code.

2. Press 1/2 control and release.

The system will now only respond

to the factory set code.

Anti-scan feature

The anti-scan feature prevents

repeated attempts at arriving at a valid key code.

The keyless entry pad is disabled for 1 minute after 7 unsuccessful

attempts (35 consecutive button presses) at entering a valid key code.

The keypad will flash during this 1 minute mode. However, the 7/8 and

9/0 controls will still lock the vehicle.

Anti-scan will be turned off after:

• one minute of keypad inactivity.

• the remote entry transmitter UNLOCK button is pressed.

• the ignition is turned to the ON position.

Unlocking the doors with the keyless entry system

To unlock the driver door, enter either the factory set code or the

personal code (each digit must be pressed within five seconds of the

prior digit). The interior lamps will also illuminate.

To unlock all doors, enter the factory set code or personal code (driver

door unlocks) and press the 3/4 control within five seconds.

Locking the doors with the

keyless entry system

It is not necessary to enter the

factory or personal code prior to

locking all doors. To lock the doors:

• with the driver's door closed, press the 7/8 control and the 9/0 control

at the same time.

What does the switch that says pwr ect and norm mean on a Lexus ls400?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It is actually to "improve" the shifts of the automatic transmission. I can tell a difference when I do this but it does use more gas and I don't like that. It is not really a sporty car so I have a sports car to drive if I want firmer shifts.

Lexus ls 400 trac light is on what could be the problem?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

More than likely, its probably the oxygen sensor. The best way to determine why the light is on is to read the diagnostic code. There is a procedure to get the engine "Check" light to flash the diagnostic code; or you could take it to a dealer for them to read the code.

By the way, the oxygen sensors should be replace every 70,000 miles.

How do you know if a fuse is bad?

Asked by Wiki User

General rule of thumb is that if you look st it you will see the internal element is broken. On some fuses they can develop a crack and not allow current to flow but they look goo. In this instance you need to use a meter to check it.

Do you perhaps mean "VSC"?

If so, that stands for Vehicle Stability Control...

What type of refrigerant does a 1991 Lexus take?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

A periodic problem on this vehicle is failure of the Air Conditioning (A/C) Compressor. The cost to repair the A/C Compressor is estimated at $781.00 for parts and $143.00 for labor.This vehicle was originally charged with R-12 refrigerant which is no longer being manufactured. The refrigerant is still available, but it is very expensive ($25.00-$50.00 per pound, 2-5 pounds per vehicle). Conversion to the new R-134A refrigerant is possible, at an average cost of about $200-$300 parts and labor.All prices are estimates based on $65 per flat rate hour and do not include diagnostic time or any applicable sales tax.

Where are the spark plugs at in a 1990 Lexus 400 LS?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

You have to remove the black plastic cover that is in the center of the valve cover. 4 bolts the two you see and if you look at the black box part at the front of the valve cover you will see the other two bolts. Take all 4 bolts out, remove the black plastic cover and you will see the spark plug wires.

Is buying a used Lexus LS a good idea?

Asked by Wiki User

Buying a used vehicle is always a gamble. When purchasing a used vehicle it is best to have some kind of repair knowledge. If you don't then it is best to take the vehicle to an independent party to have it examined and ensure reliability.

How do you fix the drivers side electric mirror on a Lexus LS430 that changes position on its own?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I am not sure when this change occurs in your car but if the mirror control switch is not set to the center position, both mirrors are programmed to dip when the transmission is put into reverse to assist in backing up visibility( at least on the 2001 model).

if above fails call ghostbusters
