Lexus ES

the light can be reset two ways. 1 with a scan tool. 2 if the fault(s) that resulted in the CEL coming on are not present for a given number of drive cycles the light may reset.

It is a faulty knock sensor code. Either a sensor or the wiring has the problem. Most likely the car ran hot and it melted the sensor's plastic housing and it is not working now. Fix is very time consuming. You have to take the plenum out, intake manifold out and then you will have access to the knock sensors in the valley. good luck

The factory speaker amplifier is under the front passenger seat. It is somewhat visible if you slide the seat all the way forward and look at it from the back seat. There may be some covers in the way, but I don't think there was any in my car. (I have the same make/model).

Our 2005 ES330 does have a traction control button, on the dash below and to the right of the steering wheel (near your right knee, it's hard to see). Pressing the button will turn traction control off. I find that turning the traction control off is only beneficial if you're stuck and unmoving or trying to gain momentum at low speeds, but if you're moving along, you definitely want to leave it on. If it's off and you're going up a hill, both tires are liable to start spinning at once, and you will lose your steering and possibly have the front axle start sliding around. Having traction control prevents one tire from spinning, depending which has more traction, and will prevent sliding at the front axle, although there is less pulling power.

average power is the average of all the instantaneous values during one alternation..

No! Replace at 80,000 miles or 10 years, whichever comes first.

me too, they do not appear to have this or find the correct part at most auto parts stores, I am going to have to go to the dealership...

The air filter is inside the black box behind the battery on the driver's side of the engine bay. There are two 10 millimeter bolts on the airbox that hold it closed.

The 2014 Lexus ES-350's engine produces 268 hp @ 6200 rpm.

If I m thinking correctly what you are referring to is the 100A fuse in the engine compartment fuse box next to the battery. You do need to remove the battery to get access to the fuse which attached with nut and bolt on its terminals.

The key has a button which controls the locks on the doors, press once for drivers door and other doors, if key does not work check battery in key.

If the code is not in the owner's manual then call the nearest dealer and tell them the VIN #. They can trace it.

i need to see the diagram fir the timing belt

under the intake manifold. Here is a write-up on how to replace it. http://us.lexusownersclub.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=41266&mode=linear

To install a backup camera on your 2005 Lexus ES 330, first, purchase a compatible camera kit that includes all necessary components. Start by removing the rear license plate to mount the camera, ensuring it's positioned for optimal visibility. Next, run the camera's wiring through the trunk, connecting it to a power source and the display screen, typically integrated into the rearview mirror or a new head unit. Finally, test the camera to ensure it functions correctly before reassembling any removed parts.

The Lexus ES300 typically requires a Group Size 24F battery. It's important to check the owner's manual for specific recommendations, as battery requirements can vary slightly by model year and trim. Additionally, ensure the battery has the correct specifications for cold cranking amps (CCA) and reserve capacity to meet your driving needs.

In a 1998 Lexus ES 300, the fuel filter is located along the fuel line, typically mounted on the driver's side of the vehicle, near the fuel tank. It is often positioned above the rear axle, close to the chassis frame. To access it, you may need to elevate the vehicle for better visibility and reach. Always ensure safety precautions are taken when working with fuel systems.

Yes, 20-inch rims can fit on a 2003 Lexus ES300, but it's important to ensure that the rims have the correct offset and bolt pattern (5x114.3) to prevent rubbing and maintain proper handling. The best tire size for 20-inch rims typically ranges from 225/35R20 to 245/30R20, depending on the specific width and style of the rim. Additionally, it's advisable to consult with a professional to ensure compatibility and maintain ride quality.

The Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) light in your 1999 Lexus may not turn off due to various reasons, such as a malfunction in the VSC system, issues with wheel speed sensors, or low brake fluid levels. It's also possible that the system has detected a fault that needs attention. A diagnostic scan can help identify specific error codes related to the issue. It's advisable to consult a mechanic to properly diagnose and resolve the problem.
