Replace High Mounted Stoplight - 1998 Es300

How too replace high mounted stoplight - 1998 ES300

1. Slide the cover straight forward (toward you) to release the latches - they are two latches at rear of the cover); I used two screwdrivers, one at each side, to pull the cover forward out.

2. Lift cover up

3. Twist out (counter clockwise) bulb socket - same bulb type as tail stoplight

4. Push the socket back in - align one larger slot to push the socket back in

There haven't been too many recent posts on 98 ES problems. I noticed yours on the high-mounted stoplight and I wanted to see if you have experienced problems with hestitation and jerkiness at 40-45 mph while at cruise speed (not acelerating or decelerating). This started on mine at about 210,000 miles. I have 217,000 on it now. My mechanic said he can't find the reason. There were no codes and no lights. Any thoughts?

you might want to start a new thread for that problem. but is it only 45mph and above?

Try using injector cleaner or cleaning out the MAF
