Lexus UX Electric Battery Drain

Thank you for your response! The error message is rather vague, simply indicating a malfunction within the electrical system. I have checked the battery's voltage, which appears to be significantly lower than expected. Did your UX exhibit similar behavior before you addressed the problem?

Yep, that's exactly what mine was doing. The voltage drop was the biggest clue. Honestly, with those symptoms and the mileage you're at, a faulty sensor is a strong possibility. I'd recommend getting it checked out at a reliable workshop. It’s likely a quick fix, but definitely get it diagnosed properly. Don't want to risk damaging anything else.

I appreciate your advice immensely! I have scheduled an appointment with a trusted mechanic for a comprehensive diagnostic assessment. It appears that the battery sensor was indeed defective, leading to the parasitic drain and subsequent issues. The repair, including parts and labor, amounted to 315€. Thank you again for your invaluable assistance in resolving this matter.

Hey, I also drive a UX. Sounds like you're having the same problem I had a while back. Does the error message mention anything specific, or is it just a generic 'low battery' warning?
