1994 LEXUS LS400 Electrical System Instrument Clusterpanel Problems

1994 LEXUS LS400 INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTS NOT WORKING WHEN COLD, AND NOW EVEN IN THE SUMMER IT TAKES LONGER FOR THE LIGHTS TO COME ON. IN COLDER WEATHER MY LIGHTS DON'T GO ON UNTIL THE CAR IS DRIVEN APPROXIMATELY 60 MILES. I CANNOT SEE HOW FAST I AM GOING, AND THE SAFETY OF ROAD CONSTRUCTION WORKERS IS A HUGE ISSUE AND I WANT TO MAINTAIN A SAFE THE SAFE LEGAL SPEED. THE ODOMETER DOESN'T REGISTER, I DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH GAS I HAVE,. THIS CONTINUES TO WORSEN AND MY FEAR IS THAT EVENTUALLY I WILL HAVE NO LIGHTS AT ALL. HAVE CHECKED INTO MANY WEB SITES AND SEEMS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE, VERY EXPENSIVE TO REPAIR. *TR

LEXUS INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTING FAILURE RESULTS IN DRIVER'S INABILITY TO ACCURATELY DETERMINE VEHICLE SPEED. THE ISSUE HAS BEEN ONGOING IN MY 1994 LEXUS LS400 FOR SEVERAL YEARS. THE VEHICLE HAS APPROXIMATELY 123000 MILES AND STARTED AT APPROXIMATELY 90000. IN COLDER WEATHER ESPECIALLY, THE DASHBOARD READOUT IS INVISIBLE FOR APPROXIMATELY THIRTY MINUTES. WHEN THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT IS SUFFICIENTLY WARM THEY DO FUNCTION PROPERLY. THIS IS A HAZARDOUS CONDITION. TOYOTA MOTOR COMPANY REFUSES TO RECOGNIZE THE DEFECTIVE NATURE OF THEIR PRODUCT AND WANTS APPROXIMATELY 1200.00 TO REPLACE THEIR DEFECTIVE PART. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF CONSUMERS WITH EXACTLY THE SAME ISSUE I'VE DESCRIBED ON VARIOUS LEXUS OWNERS WEBSITES. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD RESULT IN A VEHICLE RECALL TO CORRECT THE MATTER. *TR

I HAVE 94 LS400 AND WHEN THE PLACE IS COLD INSTRUMENT PANEL TAKES 10 TO 15 MINUTES TO LIGHT UP AND THAT ONLY HAPPENS WHEN THE PLACE IS COLD. WHEN THE PLACE IS HOT EVERY THING IS FINE. *TR

I'M VERY SHOCKED TO FIND OUT THAT A COMPANY WHO PRIDES THEMSELVES ON THE PURSUIT OF PERFECTION HASN'T ADDRESS THIS ISSUE AS AN RECALL.IT IS VERY DANGEROUS FOR ME AND MY FAMILY TO TRAVEL AND HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT NOT BEING ABLE TO DETERMINE THE SPEED, GAS CONSUMPTION LEVEL OR ANY OTHER WARNING INDICATOR LIGHTS TO GIVE US ONGOING KNOWLEDGE OF THE VEHICLE IN OPERATION. BECAUSE THE EXPENSE OF HAVING THIS REPLACE IS EST. AT $1200 THIS IS A VERY BIG INCONVENIENCE. NOT TO SAY PUTTING MY FAMILY AT RISK. I HAVE TRULY ENJOY DRIVING MY LEXUS AND WOULD LIKE TO CONTINUE ENJOYING DRIVING IT, I WOULD HOPE LEXUS WOULD BE VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE...
