Questions and answers
What does it mean when the car wont start but the radio comes on and the inside lights come on. The message says needs mainttenance
If a Lexus CT 200h won't start but the radio and interior lights come on, it may indicate an issue with the 12-volt battery. The battery might have enough power to operate accessories like lights and the radio but not enough to start the hybrid system. Another possibility is a system-related fault that requires a reset or inspection by a Lexus dealer. Checking the battery's condition and ensuring proper maintenance is recommended.
