p604 Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 hey guys I own a 2001 black IS300, and I bought it used.. the last guy that had it before me did something to the needles in the instrument cluster so it doesn't read right... think he broke them and glued them back in.. but I bought a new cluster from the salvage yard and I'm not sure what year it is.. But when I plug it in it doesnt work correctly. the rpm's, and all the lights on the left side stay on??? can some please tell me how to rewire or how to fix this thanks p604@cox.net Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is to check first the combination meter circuits, There are two connectors, make sure to compare the old one with the one you got from the junk yard. There must be something wrong with the interchange with the meter ECU. Check the wire harness on both. If engine light is on take your car to a tech for a diagnose there may be something wrong with a sersor or circuit somewhere in the engine compartment. Check all junction block (Fuises) on the car. One is on the driver side, the other one is on the passenger, the other one is by the battery and finally the ECM box that is by the right strut. Make sure to use an resistor meter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p604 Posted November 14, 2006 Author Share Posted November 14, 2006 well the car it self is a 01, and the lights and everything on the cluster is fine. now the new cluster i got i'm not sure what year IS300 it came out of, it looks the same. But when i plug it in though only half the cluster works. Is it possible that they change the wiring on the years? if so can some one send me the wiring diagram? thanks p604@cox.net Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
