How do you replace the 3rd brake bulb on a 1992 Lexus ES300?Alex - 1994 Lexus ES300 - Body & Interior - 9/14/2011High mount brake light not working!-
9/14/2011 JimmThe 3rd brake light bulb can be serviced by removing the subwoofer cover by pushing down and towards the front of the car. The other brake lights can be replaced by opening velcro covers on inside of the trunk lid.

Driver side mirror will not fold inwards , the motor runs for 20 seconds . GeorgeGeorge Iltners - 2002 Lexus SC430 - Body & Interior - 9/14/2011-
9/14/2011 Spoon SportsWell, before we go with wiring and motors, have you tired using some WD-40 and sprayd it in between the area were the mirrors fold and if you look reaklly close you can see the bolt like items in between that makes the mirrors fold. I think some rust can build up on the area that rotates the folding mechanism.

Why would my driver set don't move backward or forward on a 2001 BMW 330iJose S. Gomez - 2003 Lexus IS300 - Body & Interior - 9/8/2011-
9/8/2011 Spoon SportsIs it mechanical? If it is There is not a lot you can do on this seat in such an event. There is a mechanical issue with the seat movement mechanism. About all you can do at this point is keep working at it and perhaps invest in some smaller / longer / thinner tools.

I have a question about my A/C...MissLaniS - 1992 Lexus ES300 - Body & Interior - 9/1/2011My A/C was working good until recently. For some reason, the middle 3 vents no longer work. The air comes out only on the side vents. Someone said this could be a vaccum issue. Or something like that. Someone also said for me to look inside the car, down by the ...-
9/1/2011 Nissan Technical AdvisorBoth are true, you have a blend door actuator that could be vacuum or electric operated. If vacuum, the vacuum hose coming from you engine firewall to the intake manifold could be detached or kinked. The actuator is under the dashboard and kinda difficult to access with removing the board. Search for blend door actuator to get an idea about this.

I had this in already for this problem and they told me it was a A/C and heater housing so had the repair done and now it is happening again. I paid outragious amount to have have this repair done . Not to mention the carpet cleaned.-
8/29/2011 JimmThe wet carpet may be related to the a/c evaporator drain hose being partially blocked or clogged. This is a relatvely simple do-it-yourself repair; try the 'How-To-Guides' feature on this website for more specific steps.
8/30/2011 DebbieThanks Jimm ............ I looked in the how to guide but there is no match for evaporator drain hose. Should I be looking for some other name???

8/22/2011 HouseCallAutoYou have a problem with one of the flashing bulbs on the left side most likely. Check and confirm that you have the correct part # bulbs installed. There is a possibility of a bad turn signal flasher also. Check bulbs first.

WHY? Because you need to know the extent of the damage, because it might just be a broken linkage or severed one, or you might need to replace the entire handle (Exterior or interior, i dont know since you didnt specify)
From there you can deduce what needs to be changed, and any reputable online store has your handle -

My radio volume is not working - seems to be functioning with without volumeEric Smith - 1991 Lexus LS400 - Body & Interior - 8/4/2011Nakamichi - radio, cassette, CD player in trunk I have checked fuses May be unrelated - clock and panel for heater does not work-
1/30/2011 Nissan Technical AdvisorYou may need to check the wiring going to the speaker to determine if its connection is loose or burnt. Testing for continuity using a multimeter will help to identify a faulty wire and speakers. If speakers and wiring is good, the problem now lies on the radio. -
