Help needed on Cluster work


Recommended Posts

Hello Gentlemen, I am in need of some assistance.

 

Last time I was in London (Dec 2020) was trying to get MOT for my car and everything passed apart from the rear fog light indicator light showing up on my speedometer/cluster when it is switched on. 

 

This is because I changed my speedometer/cluster when I shipped it to the UK in order for it to read MPH instead of KPH. When I changed the cluster/speedometer I had to cut the old rear fog light wire that was retrofited to my old MPH cluster. 

 

I am basically in need of someone or a workshop that can take out my cluster, open it and solder on a small light to show my rear fog lights indicator on my speedometer when it is switched on. 

 

Does anyone know who in London could do this? any type of specialists?

May I suggest that it might be more useful if you can narrow down the search area rather more precisely than just Greater London - if that’s where you’re located.

Also are you looking for a Lexus dealer?  After all, they would be more experienced one imagines at accessing the instrument panel.  Or are you happy to let, say, auto electricians loose on your car? And have you ruled out who ever did the MOT?

But most importantly of all…great looking cat!

North West London 😁 (But would be willing to drive anywhere to get it fixed)

I would rather not let the dealers touch it because they'll probably just say that I need a new cluster knowing them 😆 and charge me over 1k for it.

When I got my car shipped to the UK the company who shipped it over also sorted out the rear fog light on the old cluster. I'm sure it would have been a general auto electrician but someone whos competant or has experience with car instrument panels. 

I think I'll try seeing with them who they got to do it.

Sounds like a good first move.  At least it’ll be someone who’s already done work on the car to your satisfaction, presumably.

You may well be right about a Lexus dealer!
