During PDS, reinstall the D/C cut fuse (25A) into its original location and clear ALL related Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs). Figure 1. 1 2 3 1 Relay Block 3 2 Remove D/C Cut Fuse (25A) Install D/C Cut Fuse (25A) (Original Location) NOTE While the vehicle is stored at the dealership, disconnect the negative (–) battery terminal to prevent battery discharge.

When the D/C fuse is reinstalled, the communication status is restored, but Lexus Enform Service Connect may store malfunction history in the form of vehicle alert history. Therefore, it is necessary to operate the multi-display and delete the vehicle alert history AFTER installing the D/C cut fuse during PDS at the dealership. Deletion Procedure 1. Turn the engine switch (power switch) to the ON position (ON mode). 2. Push the Menu switch on the remote touch device. 3. On the multi-display, enter the following menus: Info – Vehicle Alert History. 4. If there is vehicle alert history stored, perform the Delete History operation. HINT If there is no vehicle alert history stored, the system will display a message stating “There is no vehicle alert history.” 5. When the vehicle alert history deletion confirmation screen is displayed, select Yes. HINT When deletion of the vehicle alert history is complete, the system will display a message stating “There is no vehicle alert history.” 6. Turn the engine switch (power switch) to the OFF position (OFF mode). Seat Position Control ECU Initialization Refer to the applicable Repair Manual for the seating position control ECU initialization procedure (RC F / RC 300 / RC 350) (procedure 2). © 2020 Lexus, a division of Toyota Motor Sales, USA L-SB-0035-20 September 21, 2020 Page 5 of 13 2021 RC F, RC 300, and RC 350 Pre-Delivery Service (PDS) Tire Pressure Warning System (TPWS) Initialization Refer to the applicable Repair Manual for the TPWS initialization procedure (RC F / RC 300 / RC 350). Note the spare tire does NOT have a TPWS sensor. NOTE To adjust the tire pressure correctly when the outside temperature is significantly colder than shop temperature, perform a Health Check using Techstream and select the compensation tire pressure checkbox. Compensation pressures will display on the Health Check results screen. Adjust the tire pressure when the tires are cold. Memorize Steering Angle Neutral Point As a result of the removal of the D/C cut fuse, the power source to the steering angle sensor is cut off. When the D/C cut fuse is reinstalled, the parking assist monitor system/panoramic view monitor will be operative, but it cannot display guidelines to assist parking operation because the center position recognized by the steering angle sensor may not be in an initial position. Therefore, perform steering angle neutral point initialization AFTER installing the D/C cut fuse during PDS. Refer to the applicable Repair Manual for the steering angle neutral point initialization procedure (RC F / RC 300 / RC 350). Compass Calibration Refer to the applicable Repair Manual for the calibration procedure for vehicles equipped with a compass in the inner rear-view mirror. (RC F / RC 300 / RC 350). NOTE  Do NOT perform calibration of the compass in a place where the Earth's magnetic field is subject to interference (underground parking, under a steel tower, between buildings, roof parking, near a railroad crossing, near a large vehicle, etc.).  During calibration, do NOT operate electric systems (moonroof, power windows, etc.) as they may interfere with the calibration.  The dot on the compass display disappears when calibration is completed. © 2020 Lexus, a division of Toyota Motor Sales, USA L-SB-0035-20 September 21, 2020 Page 6 of 13 2021 RC F, RC 300, and RC 350 Pre-Delivery Service (PDS) Front and Rear Emergency Towing Eyelet Removal and Hole Cover Installation 1.
