Default help.. gauge and ac control unit not working

hi, sold my ls couple month ago, but just bought another one today.
car have some problem, and needed help from my dear club lexus member.
car will start but the cluster stay blank and the ac control doesn't work.
but if you leave the key to on for a minute or so, then everything will turn on and work normal.
my guess would be relay or fuse problem. but all the relay and fuse seem to be working,
does anyone of your know there's a specific fuse or relay or computer unit that control them??
any help would be great. thanks

Can you turn the key ON without starting the car, and see if the cluster and A/C control will work after a minute?

Sorry, can't offer much help but was curious what made you sell your LS and then what made you want to get right back into another one?

I guess we all sort of know why someone would covet an LS. Wanted to know more about your story of returning back to the LS. Thank you and good luck with the diagnosis.
