2008 LS460L starting problems
Hello I am having problems starting my car. It takes 5 or 6 tries . It will not turn over it will just click under the hood. I scanned the code and it showed the crankshaft sensor code. Would this be correct or could it be the starter or starter components. Thanks for your help it is a 2008 LS 460

This may be a long shot, given the crankshaft sensor error code, but there is a known problem with the start switch on the LS that manifests itself in a similar manner. There is a TSIB for it; just do a search. If the car is ultimately starting and does so consistently, I would be hard-pressed to think it's a battery/charging system problem.

I had this problem a few month back. At first I thought my battery was bad. So I took it out and went to autozone to check and the battery was fine. I even bought a new battery just to make sure and it still wouldn't start. I had to tow my car to lexus for them to diagnose the problem and it turn out my starter went bad.
