My 98 LS400 has the lamp failure message on all the time. I had one high brake light burnt so I changed both of them. Still get the message.
I checked all the other tail lights and they seem to be working (blinkers, reverse, etc).
Anyone know how I can turn off this warning? Can I bypass the sensor?

Check your backup lights and license plate lights.
Also did you use bulbs from LEXUS?
Other brands of bulbs have different wattages and outputs, so the sensor may be incorrectly reading them and thinking they are not actually there, triggering the light.
also, a bulb that is pending total failure can trigger this
