We have a Lexus RX350 and the lift gate got stuck closed and wouldn’t open.
I Fixed it just disconnecting the battery
Thank you sooooo much for posting this video. Single female here with little to no knowledge about doing any kind of repairs on my car. I thought I’d research to fix the problem as everything nowadays is crazy expensive to fix. You saved me tons of money. I tried every suggestion on You Tube and stumbled on your video and ………it worked like a charm. God bless you!!! ❤
Greatly appreciate this post!
My battery died today on my 2015 RX350, while my two dogs in cages were in the car. I called Lexus roadside ASSISTANCE, four times. They had no idea how to get the rear door open. I had used a jumper on the cigarette lighter to prevent loss of my radio pre-sets attempting to clean the terminals. That prevented the lock from working on the rear door, even after taking off the battery cable.
Thankfully, it died in my driveway, mostly shaded, as the sun was going down.
Had this happened on the road, we would have been in a real pickle.
As it was, we had to really squeeze over the cages to get the cages open, and just enough room for the two dogs to squeeze out.
And, it took 4 calls to Lexus, two were hangups, after 15minutes on hold.
Thanks again for your post! Saved our day... And the dogs!
Hey Wayne,
I am so glad I could help. That's why I created my channel. I answering from another channel which is my new one but I am the same guy :). Happy the dogs are fine
You just saved me tons of money and a trip to the dealership. Finally got my back door working after trying everything possible. You’re a God sent.❤️
I am glad I could help you! :)
Thank you for sharing. This solved my problem. Every other video was about the button in the glove box. But this was the answer I needed.
It worked on my RX 450h. Thanks brother. This trick saved me money and time.
oh that's awesome. Which year is the car?
Your battery dead and is it inside trunk right?
@@scottlee4664 battery is in the front.
After watching this, I tried it on my 2017 Mazda CX-5. The power lift gate was completely dead (no clicking or anything) after I left the ignition on overnight (ignoring all the beeps as I walked away from it, not knowing any better because the car is new to me). IT WORKED! You saved me a trip to the dealership, and the associated hassles, Marcos! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Hahaha I'm glad to hear that Pete. Subscribe to my channel if you didn't. I'm not a mechanic but I always figure out how to do stuff lol 😂.
Same thing. I borrowed daughters car and on the first day I killed her battery. Lol. After searching you tube I found this video. It worked!!
Thank you
I tried this on my Mazda CX-9 because I couldn’t find anything anywhere else and it worked! Thank you
nice. Glad it worked. Each car will be a bit different here and there base very similar process.
My problem was different but the things and procedures that you went over were a really big help - mine was the valet button (which I was totally unaware was even there or, if I ever did know I'd completely forgotten about it) I believe it must have been depressed somehow during my last service visit. Thank you for your help!
I've heard about that also. I'm very happy that I was able to help you!
same thing here
Thank you for this tip. Saved me a lot. Worked for my Toyota highlander with just removing the negative terminal
That's awesome 👍
thanks - my 2010 did this right out of the blue - i pulled the neg terminal for a few minutes and fixed...cheers
That's the way to reset the memory. Don't need to touch the positive.
Thanks for the info, after several failed attempts I ran across your video. My 2007 RX350 rear power door stopped working one day and nothing worked to open it but after disconnecting the positive terminal of the battery for 15 minutes it somehow reset and now works just fine. Thought the new battery would have done the same thing but this worked!
Very informative. BUT, one important warning: Remove the NEGATIVE (ground) battery terminal. Much safer! If you remove the positive terminal, and touch anything metal that is grounded with your wrench (while loosening the NUT), you will short-circuit the battery and get a big spark (at the least), or the battery may be ruined or even explode. It is safe to remove the positive terminal only after removing the negative terminal first.
Good advice Pete! That is the correct way to do it.
It worked! Thank you very much! My husband disconnected the negative on battery for 15 seconds and it started to work
Thank you! Lexus 2007 RX400h has the same button in glove box. I had the vehicle detailed and they must have touched it.
Worked flawlessly on my Mazda CX-5! TU
glad t o hear that!
I'm in the part that I'm saying bad words,, yet I refuse to cut the video : ) : ) : ) : ) Thanks for the info ,,, you make me smile and infor me in the same time " Great " : ) : ) : )
Thank you, thank you, thank you! Only thing is that it took my car about an hour of the battery being disconnected (vs 15 seconds). Not sure why but your video solved the problem!!
Dan o'connell that sounds weird. I'm glad it helped you Dan. :)
I've read in a forum to press on the brake pedal for 15 seconds after disconnecting the negative battery terminal, and that worked for me. The author explained that this procedure resets the KAM (Keep Alive Memory). Not sure why, but speculate that there is residual power in the system, perhaps from capacitors somewhere, that needs to be bled off.
👍
Thank you so very much for making this video. I just bought a used 2010 lexus rx350 and when I would push the trunk button on the key fob it did the same beeping noise and your solution solve the problem. Thank you so much could you please make more helpful videos about your Lexus as I am trying to learn everything about my new SUV and this was very well done.
Thank you Caroline. I am happy it worked for you. Send me a message if anything else happens and if I know how to fix I will tell you :)
Wait for the winter when it freezes and the trunk moves in steps lol. Not sure how to fix that yet.
I tried this method and it worked just fine
i changed mine with the car running that way you don't lose any presets. my battery was old so i changed it out
Dang you found my other channel lol 😂.
Good call though. I didn't think about that

@@kenjones102 scotty is the best
Thanks alot for the information buddy it sure got mine going again
Thanks for your advice. It worked. God bless you
I am glad to hear that! Thank you.
I’ve tried all this and still nothing. I gotta climb in the back to open it by hand :(
your video is definitely help . Thanks
khanh khanh I'm glad to hear that!!!
Thank you so much
I think what he did was RESETTING the electronics by disconnecting the power/battery. But should do it with the NEGATIVE terminal, as that's the terminal that gives electricity!
The car needs to be driven for a few blocks so the battery can be fully charge and the system will let the door open.
My battery didn’t die. The door will still not open. I do get the same noise.
I got a comment saying that someone disconnected the battery for over one hour then it worked. Another person said to press the break pedal for 15seconds. It should reset the Keep alone memory. Try the pedal one see what happens
@@CarModsGarage We should go through the process again and then press the Brake pedal or...?
@@OFCnmezi the pedal was someone else's suggestion.. disconnect the battery for 15 seconds and it should do it..
the motor to the power liftgate could be broken.
same damn thing happen to me
glenn maltese did my video helped on your case?
Did not work for me. ☹️
This is mozart symphonie 25th
I tried 90min still not working
oh that's odd. It should've reset the system. Maybe the battery is dead?
@@marcosfmartinstv1154 nah, same situation, no solution. I can hear the door latch moving, just wont work. Everthing else fine.
You are a life safer.
I'm glad it helped 👍
