Recently got a rx350 '15 and certain dashboard lights do not work. Its the far right side on the gauge cluster and the ABS, low fuel light, traction control light, low tire pressure " !" one ( I also can see a PCS light when the sun hits the dashboard--didnt know the car had this). I realize some of these may not light up unless needed, but even on startup on the car I though they should still illuminate quickly and then turn off (except the fuel light but that doesn't illuminate even with 25 miles left in the tank). Would this be a fuse or a bulb burned out probably? Thanks.

Different bulbs are involved for those multiple dashboard icons so unlikely to be just a bulb issue. Could be a wiring issue or perhaps somebody was back there behind the dashboard for some reason and forget to plug in one or more electrical connectors during reassembly.

Don't give up. Do some googling on potential dashboard icon lighting issues on these vehicles. And check Youtube for any appropriate videos on how to gain access back there.

Owner's manual should show a detailed diagram of warning light self test AND some text as to which are optional [configuration based].
You can call/email Lexus of USA [assuming you have a US destination model] with your VIN number and they will send you the build details.

Take it to a mechanic or a dealer and ask them to check the error codes, many places will do it for free, my local shop charges $20
If they find error codes that illuminate the ABS light, maybe the seller broke the light intentionally before selling?

That may be why then as 25 is the lowest I have ever gotten but will try 20. Seems really low for a fuel light on a car (my previous cars were 60-70 miles plus).
