2023 Lexus RX 350h Check Engine Light Codes

In Hingham, Herb Chambers Lexus of Hingham helps owners decode and resolve the most common check engine light codes for the 2023 Lexus RX 350h. Typical codes we see include oxygen sensor faults (which reduce fuel economy and can damage the catalytic converter), EVAP system leaks (often a loose gas cap or cracked hose that can cause failed emissions tests), and mass airflow or hybrid-system sensor alerts that affect drivability and MPG. Ignoring these codes can escalate repair costs—from inexpensive fixes under $150 to catalytic converter replacements or hybrid system repairs that can run into the thousands. Our certified Lexus technicians diagnose the root cause with OEM-grade tools and give transparent estimates so you understand immediate costs and long-term savings. Battery testing and battery replacement are part of our diagnostic flow for hybrid models; replacing a weak 12V or traction battery at the correct interval prevents cascading electrical faults.

2023 Lexus RX 350h Check Engine Light Reset

Resetting the check engine light on a 2023 Lexus RX 350h might seem straightforward, but a reset without repair can hide an ongoing issue and lead to larger, more expensive failures. At Herb Chambers Lexus of Hingham we explain when a reset is appropriate and when a full diagnostic is required. Our approach prioritizes transparency: we read codes with OEM scanners, provide a clear explanation of the fault, and recommend OEM parts and certified repairs that protect your warranty and vehicle longevity. We also perform battery health checks during diagnostics—if a failing battery or hybrid module contributes to codes, our team will recommend replacement options that meet Lexus specifications. Choosing the dealership for resets and repairs often saves money over time by preventing repeat visits and premature component replacement; we also offer service financing to get necessary work done now and pay over time. Before any reset, ask about current service specials and schedule appointment online for a fast, documented visit.
