Dash Lights

Our dash lights do not work on cold/damp mornings until the car warms up. Sometimes 50 miles or more. Any ideas what may be wrong?

We bought our 1993 Lexus from TX in 2001 and the dash lights never turn on until the temperature reaches about 65 degrees here, which it rarely does. We live on the north coast of CA. Can anyone figure out what we can do about this?

I contacted Lexus about this problem. It should have been a recall but they said that since it was not a safety issue, then it would not qualify for a recall. I told the person that if Lexus thinks that when my daughter is driving home from college and it is dark outside and her instrument cluster goes out whereby making it impossible for her to see if the car is overheating or if she is low on fuel, nor does she know how fast she is traveling, and you do not think that this is a safety issue? My conclusion is that they are morons. The problem can be fixed. It requires you to be able to replace three electrolytic capacitors that are surface mounted. The difficult part is removing the bad ones. I repaired my daughter's car for around $2.00. I have the complete instructions on my other computer. However, I am not close by it at the present time. I can send it to you.

same thing has happened to me three times with the same car, first time i took it to a dealership and it cost me over i thousand dollars now it's more. Also car used to have a 3'D' look to the instrument cluster but dealership said that it didn't, anyway found a great web site 'intrumentcluster.com' and they fixed it for under two hundred dollars including shipping. Instrument cluster can easy be removed with a phillips screw driver, and tilting the steering wheel down. It took less than two weeks including shipping and repair time. Dealership took my money and didnt fix the cluster to original look, in fact I think they shipped it to the same place and made a lot of money off of me. Also you can have your ECU fixed at a fraction of the cost, that website is ecu direct.com

Hi, I own a 1994 LS400, I have replaced the Flouresant tubes in the dash as advised by Lexus, it did not solve the problem.The Dash does not illuminate until warm. I've been told that the caps can be relaced and solves this. Has anybody a diagram that you could send to me for replacing these.

Kind Regards John

Someone please help me. I have a 94 Lexus LS 400 and my dash light is out. I can't afford to pay the Lexus dealership a 1, 000 dollars to fix the problem. Is there anything I can do to solve the problem?

Please help!

I have a 1994 Lexus LS 400 and I replaced the 3 capacitors on the instrument cluster circuit boards. I would like to first test the backlighting of the instrument cluster without installing it back into the car. Does anyone know which connector and pin numbers for '+' and '-' to apply the 12 Volt DC input?

Backlight failure is a common problem with these instrument clusters. We repair these and many other instrument clusters at a very reasonable price. We also repair sticking tach and speedo needles (stuck at 0). Visit website for more information.

Thank author of this post/comment"faulty lighting of dash=combined meter=instrument cluster"

Lexus LS 400 1994 -first owner- 250.000 km.

dash=cm=ic lights come on only when outside temperature is above 20 ºC or after driving till car inside temp. is above 20 ºC.

As I understand that changing 3 electrolytic capacitors on the cm printboard should solve this unwelcome but wellknown problem, I would be very grateful if someone could e-mail precise instructions.

It appears that the power source unit in the instrument panel itself is what goes bad on this. As long as you are getting your power and grounds to the instrument panel. The RPM gauge is separate in and of itself. This is applicable to flashing, flickering, timed inop function, and/or fully non-functional.

Thank author of this post/comment"lexus dash repair"

lexus has many different problems, power supply goes bad, caps go bad. Internal fuses blow. Needles go dim or dead. Speed and tach stick. Gas gauge stops working. There are a few do it yourself posts but it is best to have a pro do it as parts can be very delicate and break easily. Autoxpresstech will fix all these problems and restore your cluster to new like new operation. google them for info.
