How does ABS work on a Lexus RX300?
Frequently the tone wheels, made of high and low spots the ABS sensor reads to monitor the speed of the wheel, develop a crack. Instead of a consistent high-low-high-low notches the wheel now has one spot that reads high-low-low-high, the same signal an ABS system would see if the wheel had suddenly stopped.
What kind of car was the 1999 Lexus RX 300?
Owned a 1999 Lexus Rx 300 for five years. Three weeks ago my husband and I was hit from behind by a full sized pick up while sitting at a stop light,then pushed into another SUV in front of us. The police report said that the driver of the pick up never even noticed us and never slowed down and hit us doing 45mph.
Why does my Lexus RX300 activate at every stop sign?
The owner was concerned that the antilock brakes (ABS) would operate during normal driving and braking. It was to the point where at every stop sign, light, or turn the ABS would activate. Understandably concerned about the safety of the vehicle the owner brought it to us to have it diagnosed.
