Next time it stops blowing cold air, leave the engine running, AC on, and open the hood. Check the AC lines under the hood. If you see a lot of frost buildup on the AC lines, there's a good chance you also have frost buildup on the evaporator inside the air-handler. It's called "icing-up", and it's generally caused by someone over-charging the refrigerant (over pressure). When you build up too much ice, the air can't blow past. Correction: My understanding of the AC theory and many actual occurences over 30 years is that the icing happens when the AC charge is low, not over-charged. I know this is counter-intuitive, but, if you research how the evaporator ices up, it has to do with too low a refrigerant pressure, not too high! So, the solution is generally to add refrigerant.

How do you replace bulbs in the head lights of a 1998 Lexus 300?

Changing any bulb on a Lexus is a challenge. The most difficult part is determining the exact process. The first time might take 2 hours while the second 20 minutes or less. While I have changed the headlight bulbs on my 90 LS400, I haven't on a ES300. My suggestion is to go to lexusownersclub.com and post a question in the ES300/330 forum. Someone there will know and help you as it is the best Lexus forum available. You might also try lextreme.com as he is alos really good. VBDENNY


Flicker dash light Lexus ES300?

This is a common issue with Lexus, mainly with the older LS400's. Basically, the instrument cluster needs to be replaced, this can only be done through Lexus. A new cluster to be installed including labor will run anywhere from $750 - $1000. If you can find an instrument cluster at a salvage yard, Lexus will send it off to match the mileage from the original cluster, then install it for 2 - 3 hours of labor cost.

When you turn on your central heat it works good for about 2 hours then it starts blowing cold air instead of hot air?

This is probably the furnace overheating. Usually overheating happens when the filter is too dirty and restricts airflow, causing the limit switch to shut off the burner.
