GS450h Interior Bulbs

[Diesel Do Nicely Brian]

Hi all,

The small cluster of 3 downlighting night lights in the cabin - only one of them is working, so I assume the other 2 are dead.

Has anybody replaced these and know how/what bulbs.

Had a search online but can't seem to find the actual interior etc.

Those are LED based so someone must use them really often to burn them.

As they are LED I'm not sure if you can just replace them by yourself maybe you would need to buy whole new unit or to solder new "bulbs"

:(  They are the continuous flood lighting/puddle lights which down light the centre console when the lights are on.

 

Assume two of the three have just given up the ghost!

Whole unit is 900Eur and you can't buy bulbs for easy replacement.

Better buy soldering iron or second hand part :)

Here you got example auction with photo how does it look like from back - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2006-LEXUS-GS300-SALOON-FRONT-INTERIOR-ROOF-READING-COURTESY-LIGHT-1D153-008G-/161946640894?hash=item25b4c5a1fe:g:pFMAAOSwa-dWl4RC

 

if I were you I would double check if it is not a problem with something else - like switch/cable/fuse etc.

Thanks.

Looks like 1 LED it is then!

Are you sure they are blown? I do know when you open door, they all light up, but when you close the door, only the 1 lights up. Or something like that.

Indeed.  Just in from figuring that one out!!

All working fine now - not usually that stupid
