Power door

jdlexus · January 22, 2023

After looking at a lot of rx400h how some people expect to sell them I don't know. One had different tyres on all wheels,broken wiper blades scruffy interior the list could be endless.

However found a good one eventually more information later.

But have a problem with the power door,it worked fine for days until the recent ice and frost it now won't open I've tried the reset button in the glove box but it still will not work.

Any suggestions would be gratefully appreciated

Thanks John

Can it be a fuse blew and needs replacing?

Probably frozen. I had to pull mine very hard to open it a few days ago when it was very cold. Pull it open and see if the power will close it.

If frozen try a running a watering can full of warm water around the edges.

Glad you found one you liked John. Looking forward to hearing more about it.

I don't suppose you got it from Elite as you'd be back to them with it pronto ... private sale was it?

Can't help with the power door I'm afraid, mine doesn't have one ... it's more basic than that (an SR) 😂 .

I got it from a dealer in East london.elite never responded to my phone calls or emails I phoned one day and both phone lines were not answered so gave up on them .

I whent to four friends in Ilford got a good deal in my price bracket 11 months MOT full Lexus service history 2years warranty and a free MOT when due and a new bosh Battery.

I had a test drive for over a hour arranged payment on the spot they had it washed and valeted and drove it with me to my home in north London the same day.

The power door problem has been fixed I tried the button in the glove box but it was no good in the end I resorted to the land rover Discovery trick disconnected the negative Battery lead for about 15 minutes re connected problem solved so far I'm very pleased just need to get used to it and where all the switches and how everything works.
