This is Turtle.

Here is a long shot here. A lot of these controls are done by the main computor
of the car. Take the battery post off for 5 minutes and let the computer reset.
This is the same thing as rebooting a PC when you have trouble. A example of
this is when a car now days the air conditioning compressor cycles more than 100
time in a set length of time on low pressure or freeze control. The computor
will cut the compressor off and you have to take the battery post off to reset
the computor to rest it to try to run again.

It's a long shot but worth a shot and only takes about 5 minutes to see.

TURTLE

Turtle is right in wanting to re-set the computer to see if it will help.
To clarify, I think he means to say take the battery cable off of the
battery post and wait 5 minutes or so before reconnecting the battery cable.
Furthermore, although taking either battery cable off of the battery will
work, most people will remove the positive cable (the red cable).

I do not know if Lexus uses the same system, but on my Ford pick-up, this is
a common problem and is caused by an open resistor in the circuit that
controls the fan speed.
