'00- Dead speedo, side mirror doesn't tilt on reverse
Well my 2000 LS400 speedometer went dead and the side view mirrors no longer point to the curb when in reverse. I don’t know why I didn’t do anything to her other than my everyday driving . So if anyone out there can throw some helpful info my way about this issue It will be greatly appreciated . Thanks Ppl

Can you be more specific on spedometer symptoms? Does it illuminate? Does tach functuon?
What is current position of your mirror adjustment switch?
Are both side mirrors not tilring down or just one?
Body ECU is a possibility,, but usually the moonroof door locks windows and key remote in the multiplexed system are also inoperative .
Did car get wet beforehand ?

I agree with Legender on the speedo. Try tapping on the dash above the cluster a few times to see if the needle frees up. Also, my mirrors on my 2000 only point down in reverse if I have the mirror control selection switch flipped to driver's or passenger side, not in the middle.

Did both issues occur at once?
