Update: The battery is/was always at full charge but nothing is getting to the starter, bad relay? The cabin lights work, just nothing when turning the key and no dash lights at all.

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll try that. I wondered about the alternator, it's the original and I'm at 193,000, but I assumed I'd have a warning on the dash if it were failing, maybe not. Thanks again.

Hello gentleman of antiquity! have a 2000 Lexus RX300, the battery is good (6 months old), no cel lights on and earlier I went to start the car I got nothing, no click, just silence, car's on a flat surface in "park", it's around 40 degrees. I checked terminal connections and all's well. I put the charger on it and I'm waiting to see if that at least allows me to start the car. If so, I'm guessing something's draining the battery after the car's shut off, but I can't figure out what. Any ideas would be appreciated, thanks so much! I have to say, I bought this car back in 2006 and I can afford to buy a newer car, but I love this car and its faithful service, lol, I can't seem to part with it!

My 99 RX300 just started having a starting problem. I thought it would be the"starter" but after seeing this post I am wondering if this could be it? My question is: What would be my signal that this is the problem. My car just clicks when I try to start. It does not do it allthe time and after reading this, it actually might just be when it is warm outside. If it was this problem would I hear the engine trying harder to start or would it just be this clicking noise? Thanks! Hello, My 2000 RX is 2wd and I'm having the same starting issues as you. Any luck yet? Thanks

Sometimes it doesn't do it. I bought a new battery because it still had original, but this didn't stop the prob. Has anyone else had similar issues? It almost sounds like a dieing battery or solenoid, but then cranks right uo sometimes too. Thanks for any help out there.

Does anyone know how to replace the two front oxygen sensors? Is it difficult? My CEL has been going on and off, and the code has been read as two bad sensors. Bank 1, two front sensors. Thanks for the help. I have a 2000 rx300 front whl dr.
