    Holy shit, that would have been scary as shit to limp home when that problem started. Have to tow that to the dealership to get it fixed, would NOT want to drive there.

    ^^ Yeah, I drew a frame of a man running on each fan blade. That is him running at idle

    It appears, from comments and in talking to a Toyota/Lexus employee, that it's possible the instillation of aftermarket HID headlights without the proper surge protection could be responsible for frying a sensor or part of the electronics system. This is only speculation, but all the vehicles involved so far seem to have installed the lights.
    so it looks like ppl fucked up the wiring of some HIDs they had ti have and now the steering is fooked.

    Mine really dosn't leave the garage. People across the street think it is a tool bench.
