Thanks to all who gave advice based on my recent issue with No Crank/No Start.
After pulling the starter and taking it down to the local parts dealer, I was sadly informed that the starter was indeed the issue after a bench test.
Replaced the starter, cleaned the battery posts and connectors and all is good to go. Luckily the starter was easy to get to.

Ya I just ripped the starter and battery out and will take it down to the local parts store to test both. While waiting, I will come back clean up my connections and go from there.
If it still keeps happening, I have no idea whats up. I mean I can start it eventually so I know its not an internal engine issue. I think this is all pointing to the starter getting enough voltage. I will let you guys know what happens.

twiggy – thanks I will check out my terminal posts, cable connections and see what I get from there. I did change the negative terminal from the stock Lexus ‘fancy plastic connector’ to the more rigid, basic and simple connector.
I did however notice that on the positive terminal aside from the larger gauge red cable there is a smaller size wire (red wire) with a lead to the battery. It looks cracked and corroded. Maybe that is the cause? I will clean these up and give the battery a tap with the little hammer and see what happens. If anything else I will just take the battery down to get tested.twiggy – thanks I will check out my terminal posts, cable connections and see what I get from there.
