Bad instrument cluster

When cold the cluster flickers and eventually goes off.This will happen if cool air enters through the dash vents .During winter it will stay off until it reaches a certain temp inside the car. ?????

You need to pull your cluster out and send to a repair shop. Nothing you can really do on your own. Search on Google for Lexus cluster repair shops. They are spread out across the country.

See this thread: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/ls4...eedle-fix.html . It's not a particularly difficult fix if you're comfortable with a soldering iron, I've performed this fix on my own LS.
