Are there any other codes? If not you need to follow these steps. These are your trouble area: Gas leakage on exhaust system, A/F sensor (bank 1, 2 sensor 1), heateed oxygen sensor(bank 1 sensor 2), three-way catalytic converter.
- Check for gas leakage on exhaust system.
- Check A/F sensor (bank 1,2 sensor 1)these sensors on the exhuast manifold. Disconnect A/F sensor connector. Use an ohmmeter to measure the resistance between terminals +B and HT.
Resistance: at 68F 0.8-1.4ohms
at 1472 F 1.8-3.2ohms
- Check heated oxygen sensor(bank 1 sensor 2. This connector is located under the driver's
seat so you have to remove it. Use an ohmmeter measure the resistance between terminal +B and HT.
Resistance: at 68F 11-16ohms
at 1472F 23-32ohms
If these sensors are in spec then you need to replace your three-way catalytic converter. How come your mechanic doesn't test the sensors for you?
I hope this help. Most like you will need to bring your car to a lexus dealer to properly diagnost your RX. Or drive your car to dallas for me to diagnost :P .
