No one has this problem????
I can't believe that I am the only person with a LS400 that has had this problem. No lighting on the sound system display is a pain at night. Certainly someone has had this happen to their car. Can anyone give me a clue as to what the options are to get this fixed??
Thanks

if you can still see the led, however the back light green is not on. you can take the unit apart and change the bulbs.
my problem is the the opposite. my HVAC control lights up however the led is black.

LCD is readable, but green lights are out
Yes the LCD is readable but the green lights are gone. Are there light bulbs for the green lights that can be changed inside??? Are there any instructions available to take out the radio to change the bulbs?

Hey hanuman007
There is a company called Mikado in South San Francisco that will rebuild LCD displays. You can send them the LCD assembly and they will fix it for you. If you take it in to them they will do it for $295.00 and it can be done in an afternoon.

LCD Out
there are no instructions per say. You have to take the unit out and look on top and bottom of the unit for little bulb sockets. you can unscrew them and take the bulb out then put the new bulb back in. its pretty easy. i have done this for my suspension, power, and sport mode switches. you may even have to take the the covers off, the bulbs may be located on the inside.
i hope it helps

Ahhh my first post here
 .I think you guys need to check out my website, The Lexls.com: http://www.lexls.com I've got picture tutorials for many things, one of those being a DIY LCD fix. http://www.lexls.com/climateLCDscreen.html If you already have it fixed you can see how its done. That tutorial also includes info on how to replace backlighting bulbs, including the Lexus part numbers. It is for the CCU specifically, but the stereo is built in a similar fashion. It sounds like your bulbs are burned out DrScud. If you don't wanna repair the stereo yourself check out this site: http://carstereohelp.com/lexus.htm They offer fixes for different type of Lex stereo problems. Edit: Didn't see this was such an old thread, you probably have it fixed already! Last edited by Earl!; 10-30-2004 at 01:48 PM.

Re: LCD Gone?
This thread is very useful, thank you. My problem is with the sound system and it is that both the LCD backlight and the backlight for the switches have gone dead simultaneously. Does this sound like a simple dead bulb problem please?
TIA ... Greg

Re: LCD Gone?
More information about my problem of backlight for both LCD and switches going dead. My LS400 is a 1996 model and the sound system is the premium sound system so I figure the brand is Nakamichi. Can anyone confirm what is involved in fixing this problem please?
PS. www.lexls.com is positively excellent but I wonder if there's a similar site for 2nd generation LS400s? TIA ... Greg
