I need to amend the speedo on this vehicle from km's to miles per hour after importing from Rep of ireland. I am aware how to remove the cluster itself, but can the glass fascia be removed
SOURCE: gluster gauge won't illuminate
Hello hayeizmyhome...Very low mileage for a 1990 model. However... this is usually around the mileage interval the dreaded instrument cluster, panel and dash light failures start...lights will flicker, then go out, gauges will start going up and down, lcd's will become hazey and hard to read....etc.
The instruments are illuminated both day and night while the ignition is on.
When the ignition is off, the panel goes dark and you can’t see the gauges at all.
The lexus has an electronic circuit board behind the inst. cluster that has been the problem. Very expensive repair if done by dealer.
*TIP* This circuit board can be repaired if you know a good electrical technician much cheaper.
The recommended timing belt replacement interval on the LS is 120k...water pump should be replaced also, the timing belt runs the water pump. The LS has a non-interference engine, meaning if the belt breaks, no damage will be done to the engine...
Hope this answers your questions..and your lexus runs for many more miles...with proper care and maintainnace, it will.

You are better off getting the entire Cluster replaced, by any Lexus Dealer, and make sure they atleast give you a 12 month warranty on the part and the labor..Now it may cost a little more, than if you had someone else to do it, but its worth the peace of mind and money in the long run....
