- Causes range from a loose gas cap to oxygen sensor faults, misfires, EV/hybrid system notifications, or catalytic system degradation.
- Prompt diagnosis at Nalley Lexus Roswell prevents escalation, protects fuel economy and emissions systems, and preserves long-term value.

2022 Lexus ES 300h Check Engine Light Flashing
The check engine light flashing on your 2022 Lexus ES 300h is a serious warning that typically indicates an active misfire or another fault that can rapidly damage the catalytic converter and drivetrain if continued. A flashing condition demands immediate attention: reduce speed, avoid heavy loads, and bring the vehicle to Nalley Lexus Roswell for priority inspection. Our factory-trained technicians use Lexus-specific diagnostic tools to pinpoint misfires, ignition issues, or hybrid-system anomalies, and recommend the safest next steps. Quick, certified service minimizes repair scope and cost, preserves warranty eligibility, and prevents long-term damage — delivering both immediate and future savings compared with delayed or incomplete fixes.
2022 Lexus ES 300h Check Engine Light Reset
Resetting a check engine light on a 2022 Lexus ES 300h is technically simple with an OBD-II scanner, but clearing the code without resolving the root cause can mask problems and lead to repeat failures. Disconnecting the battery or clearing codes manually may also erase important freeze-frame data technicians need for accurate diagnosis. At Nalley Lexus Roswell we perform a thorough diagnostic, repair with genuine Lexus parts, and then reset and verify the system so the fault doesn’t return. Using our dealership ensures warranty compliance, precise calibrations, and long-term savings by preventing premature part failures—repairs covered under warranty must be done at a certified dealership to keep coverage valid.
2022 Lexus ES 300h Check Engine Light Codes
Common check engine codes for the 2022 Lexus ES 300h include EVAP leaks (often P0455), oxygen sensor faults (P0135–P0167 range), catalytic converter efficiency codes (P0420), and misfire codes (P0300 series); hybrid-system trouble may appear as manufacturer-specific P0A or P1xxx codes. Left unaddressed, oxygen sensor faults can increase fuel costs and emissions ($150–$400 typical replacement), catalytic issues may require $1,000–$2,500 repairs, and misfires can damage the engine or catalytic converter, leading to much higher bills. Nalley Lexus Roswell diagnoses codes accurately, addresses the cause with OEM parts, and provides cost-effective repairs that save money over time by preventing cascading failures.
