Andy
Yes tried reset numerous times, tried everything u can imagine like disconnecting batteries, fuse out fuse in....all to no availl, does look like the security ECU is shot, wondered if anyone else has come across this as most things on the LC are bullitproof but it is an electrical component so i guess still prone to breaking...well did manage to source ECU off e bay, same model TVSS III-B and model number off a lexus GS 300....heres something i thought off is the high end vehicles around the same year as my LC, 1997, all fitted with the same alarm system..!! as i found a 97 celica GT4 had same aswell....so if anyone ends up with there ecu box going try looking for top end cars same year as your cruiser...
