In the interest of diagnostics, in addition to the GPS malfunction, ‘don’t know how this can be related, but in the same trip, incurred a flat tire with two punctures, a bolt and a staple, and later in the trip, the headlights turned off by themselves and had never had trouble with them before. A little alarming going down the interstate at 75 mph. 😊 Now the radio is coming on by itself.
The lights did come back on, and the engine is running great.
You left out a few details.
A Rambler? Hey, I learned to drive on an international Harvester truck with a stick shift and my first car was a Ford falcon. But we country girls can learn. From that I went to a 68 Chevy Camaro super sport and never looked back!
Sounds like a network wire may have been nicked by road debris.
Whenever I hear "possessed" I think computer network wiring issue
I wondered about that. Going to lift the hood today. This all happened after a day in a level one trauma center and been flying by the seat of my pants since. Just got the tire fixed yesterday and boy was that an experience. Thanks so much.
New to this forum, please forgive omission. Thought I had included it. The vehicle is a 2007 Lexus IS350 with approximately 97,000 miles. Only repair has been on squeaky brakes after new tires and replacement interior air filter. One owner, perfect maintenance. Getting ready to sell, car on order going to build in March in Germany. No longer see question and hope I haven’t omitted anything.
Additional required information:
subject vehicle purchased new from dealer. It is an automatic with shift paddles. OBDII codes unknown, exact mileage, 92,622.
And I forgot, it has had a headlight replaced, years ago
