98 Lexus GS400 Radio LCD display replacement??
I have a GS400 with the Nakamichi stereo system in it. The lcd display appears to have gone out and I would like to know if anyone knows how to fix it or if it is possible to replace it. Or what is the problem and how can I solve it? At the moment, I basically can not see anything on the display. This definitely makes it very difficult (impossible) to see the radio station or any other details. Any ideas?

The pic above is the actual HU. It definitely says Nakamichi on the unit. I'll have to look at it again later but I don't think it is a Pioneer. I don't think I am ready for an aftermarket DVD/NAV unit. I don't think it would be worth the extra expense for the little I would use it.

I replaced mine with a new LCD from Pioneer a few years back. Very easy to replace after the radio has been removed from the car. In order to get the correct piece from Pioneer, they required the model # on the sticker on the back side of the radio. Not sure how Nakamichi works, but i would assume it should be the same. Good luck!!
