Background on the car.
2003 Is300 (5spd)
Viper alarm Installed. (Previous Owner
)
Parked my Is 9 days ago and went about installing the #194 and #24 Led's into my Cluster. Since parked the car since i am awaiting my upper and lower control arms, Traction bars, and Toe arms. Today went to crank the car since it had been a few days and it turns over but will not crank. I called the Lexus dealership but they believe the problem is easily blamed on the viper system.
Tried the key turned to ACC and the security light still flashes. So i got the original key and it does the exact same thing.
Could the car possibly have reset somehow to reject BOTH keys?
I'm lost guys. posting up on the forums is my last resort so anything will help![Thumb Up](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)

first off more pics of the car! lol second im with broseidon. taking out your cluster should have no correlation to the car not starting by any chance did you try jumpstarting the car? and the reason i say that you op you state it will turn over but not crank. does it crank and not start? I don't understand what its doing. or have you tried to unplug the battery and reset your alarm? I am just trying to give you a few little easy thing to try if not we will have to dig deeper.

Talked to a fellow sxe10nc guy and he said he's dealing with the same problem after changing the back lighting on his cluster.
