Default 2016 LS460 F Sport Daytime Running Light

Hi. I noticed the other day that my daytime running light on my passenger side headlight went out. Its a 2016 LS460 F-Sport. It has the triple beam headlights that move in the direction of the steering wheel. Is there any way to fix the issue. Driver's side works fine but passenger side is very dim. Can anybody point me in the right direction please? I would hate to buy a whole new headlight. $$$$

I was afraid of that. So nobody has ever fixed or tried to fix our daytime running lights?

Replacing the LEDs in an original unit has probably been done, just not documented here on the forum as far as I can recall. The challenge, aside from dismantling the entire headlamp assembly, would be matching the LED color to the opposite side. If it were mine, I would replace both sides at the same time, and have done so on other vehicles many years ago when it first started out as a hobby then developed into a little side business. Many vids now available for the process but obviously depends on one's skillset, patience, and attention to detail.

Here are some more recent threads for later models that could possibly shed some more light..... https://www.clublexus.com/forums/ls-...ike-light.html

Find yourself a good Toyota or Lexus shop. You'll save money on the labor and get the same results.

you can buy damaged one and just use the inner light and just remove your old lens and headlights and reused them. There are shop around me that dose it in New York City and New Jersey’s. Also you can have shipped them to there shop they Remove and reseal everything with the warranty you can just Google it there’s lotta stores that does it online
next step is dealer ughhhhj$$$$

On older models drl can be turned off using Techstream. I'd turn them off if possible.

On my 2013, I used Carista to turn off my DRL. When I want them, they still work when I turn them on at the stalk.
