Smh happen again burn the starter relay so I remove it so it won't crank on it's own. So now I will get a multimeter and check the ignition to the starter and also check the theft deterrent ecu. But I also wanted to know are these cars known for these electrical problems?

Well clublexus friends I to take the car to the Lexus dealer today. So how water got to my fuse box cause some corrosion on the fuse box itself. It was from the windshield not being sealed correctly. But the windshield was done 3 years ago Idk why it would mess up now.

Corrosion doesn't happen over night. I guess it took three years for the corrosion to build enough to cause the malfunction. Glad you found the culprit. It must be a relief to know your car isn't possessed lol.

This is happening periodically to my GS too. It shorts and tries starting by itself while draining the battery. I will have to eventually get it fixed. Let us know how much the dealer charged you. Hope it gets fixed quickly!!

Had the car fix at Lexus. The fuse box was bad due to water damage from the windshield not being seal correctly. Cost me 960 with parts and labor, windshield going to cost 284 that's getting done this Tuesday. The gs4 run so much better, I'm fighting with ppl that did my windshield the first time to reimbursed me since they messed up but they giving me a hard time smh.
