2002 Lexus RX 300 - Answered Questions & Fixed issues
Lexus rx300 2002 hard shift between 1st and 2nd.
The 1999-2003 Lexus RX300 models have a common failure of the engine computer that causes the harsh shifting of the transmission. You need to get the computer (ECM - Engine Control Module) rebuilt or replaced before it causes permanent damage to the transmission. Even if the transmission is already ruined, the ECM will still need to be repaired. Most often, the transmission is fine though, and rebuilding the ECM will restore the smooth shifts that the Lexus should have. Circuit Board Medics can rebuild the ECM and reprogram it so that you only have to plug it back in when you get it back. See the link below:

Hi I have 2002 Lexus
Have you checked the switch on the brake pedal?
Need to find out if computer is part of brake light circuit if everything else is working.
I have 2002 Lexus RX300 all wheel drive and the
if it has only happened the twice when you have went over high snow , it seems to me the sensors have just got wet then sent the signal through to the computer as they normally do , i would'nt worry about it unless it came on constantly ....
Died while driving
Maybe the battery was the problem but I would have that alternator rechecked while hot & cooled off & ck for electrical shorts. Good luck

leave well alone as the confort system is playing up this is a compliated set of microprocessors and relays in a box built into teh motor and the only way to sort it is to replace the whole motor assembly ,
CAUSE OF BROKEN CRANKSHAFT
broke the crank. that is not easy to do. you got a piston that locked up or there was a major problem when they made the crank. crankshaft broke where? I seen them break at the end where its close to the transmission and that's from beating on the car to much. most times something else will break before the crank. you will have to pull the motor apart to find the real reason.
Why is my lexus rx 300 not going into gear 5
This could be caused by a variety of things.....but, coolant temperature is a significant input to the transmission control module for the overdrive gear engagement. If the transmission ECU determines the engine is not coming up to operating temperature, it will delay the engagement of the overdrive. There is also the possibility that the throttle position sensor has an issue as well....is the check engine lamp illuminated??? A scan of the engine control module and the trans module is in order....a good tech. will be able to discover the cause very quickly!
Rattling noise when accelerating
With the Engine cool, locate the catalytic converters, one on the front of the engine and one on the back, start the engine and listen for exhaust, if you can hear the exhaust place your hand near the converter shield ends and see if you feel air movement, the catalytic converter may have a circumferential crack and has broken open. Replace the converter.
My 2002 Lexus rx300 has check engine light on
Normally you need to connect it to a code reader (scanner) and that should give you the information as a code and direct you to the system in the car that may be causing the light to be on.
P1155 alternative fuel controller
check the o2 sensor on bank one thats the left side if you are in the car and your right under the hood if the harness is ok replace the o2sensor
How do I replace ac
Yell at it till it gives up. Or you could take it too a shop and pay a chunk and be done with it.
My rx300 has been repaired
If there is not a button on the dash that you can push to turn the traction control and vsc back on then you will have to take it back to your mechanic to find out why those lights are still on.
Break light don't work
if eather of them dont work you have a bad switch behind the break pedal it looks like a push button on the front of the pedal
Replace sunroof drain tubes
Why do you want to replace the tubes?if they are clogged just use a thin electric snake and go from the sunroof.
Battery keeps draining when car sits for several days.
Try this to see if you can find the drain: Wait until the car has been off for a half hour, so computer is in sleep mode. Open hood and remove underhood light bulb. Take off negative cable from battery and hook up a test light between cable end and battery post. If you have a drain, bulb should be brightly lit. Start removing fuses one by one until light goes off. When a fuse is pulled that turns light off, that is the problem circuit. Check everything on that circuit to find what is staying on.
