classic...is the search function really that misleading and difficult to understand? And are people really limited to understanding the purpose of "key-words" and how they work when searching? Makes me very surprised that the people posting these threads were even able to find ClubLexus.com using yahoo/google.

Just to help the poor bastard out, here's the deal. Our gauge needles use a series of small surface mount LEDs. While LEDs last a LONG time they don't last forever. Especially these little buggers. What's happening is they are overloading and flash/burning out. If you reduce your gauge cluster brightness it will help out just slightly, but eventually they will burn out. The best solution is to replace them. http://lextech.org/osCommerce/index....8102cc394cfda4

LOL hilarious. Searching is definitely not hard and ignorance is not an excuse. On another note, I have to replace my needles too thanks for eating the flames so my life is a bit easier
