There are leds in the needles that no longer make contact. When the temperature changes they might lit up temorarilly.

I 'fixed' mine by putting 3 clusters of four leds in each long needle and 2 clusters of four in the short ones.

When you put four leds in serie you do't need a resistor.

The original leds are hard to remove. Since the weight of new leds is different, callibration with little weights is required.

Other solutions I saw:

-using fluorescent paint and adding a light in the background.

How do you replace the bulbs to dashboard lights for tach and speedometer in a 1995 Lexus GS300 They are normally red bars?

If you only need bulbs then your solution is easy, however if the needles themselves no longer illuminate, then there is no bulb to replace since the needles are the bulbs. Your local Lexus dealer will be happy to assist you in this matter, there is one catch...they will only sell you the entire instrument panel. The last quote I got was around $300.00.

How do you fix the speedometer lights in a 1993 Lexus ES300?

Hi, I had the same problem with my es300. I found a company in Michigan that is able to replace the needles and get them to light up again. They had it back in a few days.They are called Dash Electronics & Speedometer the number is (248) 835 1332 found them on the web at: www.dashusa.com good luck!! I called dashusa.com and they said that it costs around $350 to fix the needles. They basically add on an LED light to the needles, they don't replace the needles.
