Thank You...Thank You.....Thank You.....With your instructions and pictures made the job easy to do and what to expect.....one of the two brass screws had a bad time getting it out...used needle nose vise grips to remove it...what I would suggest is to retap the holes if the screws do not go in easy. once again Thank You ...Thank You ....thank You

thank you , it was exactly what you said. A relay that was stuck,,,,,freed it up everything worked,,,,sanded the points ,temp fix will get new relay Mon. thank you once again Bob

Very nice! Glad you found itl. I think I may have given you the wrong location for the HVAC blower relay. Was it in the interior fuse block instead of in the engine compartment fuse block?

The relay for the HVAC was in the engine compartment box. Exactly like you said .Thank you again.... BOB

The blower motor is in my 97 ES is the one that went bad...looking for that motor thank you

I don't know what to tell you. According to the diagrams for your ES and my LS, their blower motors are in approximately the same location. I can just barely see the housing the blower motor on my LS fits into by opening my glove compartment and removing the part of the rear glove compartment that covers where the cabin filter goes. Maybe you have to lay on your back on the floor and look upward -- I assume you have removed the trim panel under the dash.

There is a relay for the blower in the engine compartment fuse box -- the diagram I'm looking at shows that it is the relay nearest the firewall .... probably described on the fuse box lid. There are other components directly associated with the blower motor -- resister, controller. Look up your car on http://www.toyodiy.com and search for "blower" to see a list.

I took off the bottom panel and there it was.....thanks to your pictures of the RX they are the same ...thank you so much ... thank you so much .....Bob

removed the glove box.........could not find blower motor .....help ...thanks

Those instructions are for an ES -- not an RX. The blower fan motor in a 2000 RX300 can be seen in the attached diagram ... or do you also have an ES that is not shown in your profile?

You need to remove the glove box in order to get a clear view of the motor. Takes 10 minutes to remove the glove box.

1. open glove box and remove the 3 screw at the top edge

2. remove the black plastic board direction under the glove box from the passenger foot area( place your head under the glove box and look up). You just need to pull it down.

3. another 2 or 3 screws at the bottom edge of the glove box. you will see those screws w/the box closed.

4. right directly under the glove box and to your right, there is a carpet/plastic cover at the wall. pull that out.

5. gently pull back the door area plastic trimming next to that carpet/plastic cover. no need to remove, just pull back to see the 10 or 12 mm bolt. remove that bolt.

6. gently ply the glove box at the top edge from the inside and lift the glove box out.

7. now you see the motor w/3 screws bolted to it.

If your AC/Heater Blower speed always runs 1) low or 2) high, see attachment for fix.

The most likely cause is the linear controller module for 1) , and the resister (resistor) for 2).

It is rarely the $850 electronics module in the dashboard.

This is poorly documented in the available publications and even Lexus service was confused and provided incorrect info.

I will be happy to provide info in pdf, but was not able to attach. If you tell me how, I will.

Blower motor on my 1998 ES 300 stopped working recently. If you could email me the pdf if would be much appreciated. Email is dennisrlane@excite.com. Thanks.
