Very Strange?

[royoftherovers]

Just arrived back in UK after 74 days away in Spain.

450h started first time after being fed by a solar powered charger. Took it out yesterday for short drive and everything was fine.

Today I motored from Wirral to Toddington and on the M6 I heard approx 10 "pops" which sounded just like bubblewrap popping. I stopped and checked eveything but could find nothing wrong, so I proceeded on my journey. I THEN NOTICED THAT AIR CON HAD STOPPED WORKING AS HAD ALL AUDIO SOUNDS INC SAT NAV.

I phoned Lexus Milton Keynes from my destination and they asked me to take the car to them for examination. After lunch I set out to take the car to them and noticed that all was working again!

Seems that everything had been re-set. Any ideas anyone?

Regards

John

Must have been the threat of taking her into the Lexus garage that frightened her into stop messing around and reset herself Mike.

on the LS forum a weak Battery is known to do weird and unexplainable things - i would start by getting the 12v Battery tested

Welcome back John! All I can think of is as Mark says above, to get the 12v Battery checked. Let's hope it is a one off

Many thanks Michael.Can`t say I am delighted to be back as weather is not a patch on what I have left behind! But I cannot live in Spain all year!

GS 450h has been perfect since the minor mishap. Lexus Chester suggested that it might (the popping noise) have been a faulty amplifier and asked me to contact them again should it recur.
