Lexus LX stuck in transport mode

Nope, that's the crazy part! Nothing happened. It was running fine, parked it, and then this. I suspected a drained battery, but it's fully charged. Could it be some kind of immobilizer glitch? Is there anything that I can do myself?

Okay, so if nothing triggered it, that’s even stranger. When mine did that, the dealer said something about a software glitch during some internal testing, that put the car in transport mode. Sounds like you need to get hooked up to a diagnostic computer and see if they can force it out of transport mode. It's likely something only a shop can handle, as it will need a specific Lexus diagnostic tool.

Roger that. Sounds like a trip to the shop is in order. I was hoping it was something simple I could fix. Thanks for the insight; at least I know what to tell them to look for. Hopefully, it won't cost an arm and a leg. Zero euros sounds like a good price to fix the problem, but I doubt that's going to happen.

Whoa, that's weird. I had something similar happen on my LX. Everything just went haywire. The electrical issues are really nasty. Did you recently get any work done on it, or did anything happen that might have triggered this?
