All electrical fail, won't go into gears but engine turns
Hello all,
I'm experiencing a problem i really do not know where to start. I have a 1993 model, the engine is able to turn but none of the electrical works-cd player, doors lock, windows, front panel etc...- and it doesnt go into gears. The battery is fine and I have checked all the fuses and they all look fine, none is broken. I have checked both fuse boxes. Hopefully this adequate information. Thank you everyone!

Welcome to Club Lexus.
Sorry to hear but we'll need a whole lot more info:
Miles on car-
Condition of tranny fluid-
Last major service and or any recent service?
Had the car driven fine prior?
Do the dash lights work? Any warning lights/flashing?
Does the A/C work?

Engine turns, is that it? I say look at the fusible links. And to check any fuse you need to remove it to do so with some form of continuity checker.
How did you make the engine turn? Key switch? Remote or jumper the starter? Yeah more details help all we can do is guess what your talking about.

I have not checked all the fluid but the car is fine prior, driven around just a day before. The car is 216000+, none of the dash lights / warning lights work and same goes for the AC. I got the engine to turn with the key and have checked all the fuses and none are broken.

Ouch. To get started you'll want to be able to pull some error codes and this thread may have some additional info regarding the symptoms of the car:

There is also the cluster and circuit board to deal with. The UCF1X FAQ has linked discussions on this.
