norbertk Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 I went to order my wallet key from Lexus today, paid $37 with tax, and it will be ready for me tomorrow! I asked about the cluster labor charge, as my engine temperature gauge went dead yesterday after a painful blinking death. My fuel gauge has also been out for quite some time. (Red light) They charge $10 for a bulb, and they want to replace all 10 of them, "Just because they might as well since they're back there." I think they were just talking about the backlighting. I spoke to the service department and they said the needle is a flourscent tube and the whole gauge would need to be replaced. I was told the gauge set would cost $ 898.71, and with labor and taxes.. about $1250. Now I hope there is an alternate solution to this problem, if anyone can help, I would appreciate it.

chuckb Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 it seems like everything at lextech is geared to SC's. I have a 95es w/dying tach and gas gauge. Has anyone removed an es cluster & sent it to them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anyone removed an es cluster & sent it to them? Why don't you try e-mailing someone at LexTech. I am sure they can help you. You could also look for a used cluster on eBay. They usually run @ $250-300 and it only takes a few ninutes to make the swap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcfish Posted September 21, 2004 Share Posted September 21, 2004 What exactly do you want to know about your es300 cluster ? Hopefully I can help out . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
svarog Posted September 21, 2004 Share Posted September 21, 2004 My cluster is weak too, two of my needles are dead, should I open it up and just put white out on the speed needle? Because i can't see it at night, not worth it $250 to me though, for a needle to be bright. Besides maybe I can use it as excuse if get pulled over for speeding!

dcfish Posted September 21, 2004 Share Posted September 21, 2004 EMAIL ME I have a pdf file that contains .gif files that I am not allowed to upload to the forum. The .pdf file is an option that is considerably less expensive fix if you have some soldering experience . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
