The screen is entirely black. The volume control has no effect. There was no speaker crackle before the system stopped working.

Okay, a completely black screen and unresponsive controls definitely points to a bigger problem than just a muted volume. When you say 'error stored in error memory', did you pull that code yourself, or did a shop do it? Because if it's a display issue, it could be a simple connection problem, or the whole unit might be toast. Sadly, Lexus audio systems can be a pain. I'd say it's workshop time, especially with those error codes. They'll have the right tools to diagnose it properly.

Thank you for the advice. The diagnostic confirmed a defective display unit. Repair cost is estimated at 725€.

Whoa, that sounds frustrating! No tunes in your Lexus? Bummer! Does 'non-operational' mean absolutely nothing, like a totally dead screen? Or are you seeing anything at all? Like, does the Lexus logo pop up when you start the car, even for a sec? Have you tried messing with the volume control, maybe it's just stuck on mute? Also, any weird noises, like speaker crackle before it died?
