In cases like this, after isolating the problem, I'd try to get the part from a Lexus junk yard (i.e., automotive recycler).

If it's in the latch then I'll try to spay some WD40 to free it.

Has anyone tried to take this latch/swith assembly apart? I'm also experiencing the same problem on my front left door.
