Default 98 ES300 Speedo quits in hot weather

Recently got a 98 ES300 in so-so condition. It runs well and all the "point A to point B" stuff works but there are several issues I want to eventually work out.

Starting with the speedo/odometer. It works properly until the temp outside gets to about 90-92 degrees then no speedometer, odometer, or cruise control. I can't afford to throw money at this so I'd like to ask where I should start troubleshooting.

If anyone has heard of this particular issue info would be great. It's not a major concern but it is aggravating.

Thanks.

I would check out the VSS on top of the transmission first...since that area will be more prone to heat-related problems than something in the cluster
