I recently replaced the instrument cluster in my 04 LS430 with one from a salvaged car. I looks better than the original one, which lost illumination of the dials. I will be swapping them back when the original one is back from repair bench. But meantime I have noticed that the cruise control indicator is missing. Did some LS430s come without cruise control? The cruise control still works but there is no indicator on the insterument cluster that it is on.

 

Some has radar some don't

 

I assume you're talking about the Green "Cruise" light. I'm pretty sure every LS, even the Base model came with cruise control. Maybe that part of the cluster is out?

 

Yes, the green light. It isnt very important since the cruise control still works, but I was wondering about its absence since this was an older cluster than my car. I like the really bright RED pointers on the gauges, my original, which I am repairing, has orange pointers that are less bright. I need to change the clusters back though because this older cluster has 315K on it and my car and the original cluster have only 96K
