RX400h Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 A few possibilities from a Bing Copilot search: Quote There could be several reasons why your 2000 Lexus ES300 is not shifting between 2nd and 3rd gears. Here are a few possibilities: Cold Temperatures: Some Lexus ES300 owners have reported issues with the transmission shifting gears in cold weather. The transmission may not shift correctly until the vehicle has warmed up. Throttle Position Sensor or Shift Solenoid: At higher mileages, the automatic transmission may not shift correctly due to the throttle position sensor being out of adjustment or a shift solenoid needing to be replaced. Shift-Interlock System: Sometimes, the shift-interlock system can be accidentally engaged as a safety feature. This commonly occurs when a battery has been reset on some Lexus models. Please note that these are just some possibilities, and the actual issue could be different. It’s recommended to have your vehicle inspected by a professional mechanic to accurately diagnose and fix the problem. Remember, attempting to fix automotive issues without proper knowledge and tools can lead to further damage or potential safety risks. Stay safe!
