I have a lexus LS 400 (1995) model. What I don't

I have a lexus LS 400 (1995) model. What I don't understand is the speedo and techo do not automatically work when I first start the car and after running for 15 minutes on the road, they start working. why? Another question I experience lately is that the dash board illumination does not light up when I first start the car and after around 5 minute's driving on the road, it then come on. I never had this experience before. Please advise.

It is a bad (leaky) electrolytic capacitor in the dash board that cost a few dollars. The dealer wants to install a whole new dashboard assembly for big $$$.

Where is the fuel emergancy shut of valve in a lexus 91 Ls 400

Toyota products usually don't use a shut-off for the fuel system.
If the fuel pressure is low, you would need to check the fuel pump relay for power and then the pump.

Techo meter or speedo meter does not work

There are 2 sensors on the engine that sent a signal to the computer and speedometer and tach. When one of these goes bad it can make the speedometer and tach go all over the place and also just stop working. This can also cause all types of engine running problems because the information being sent to the PCM will be incorrect all so. The units are easy to replace once you find them, it seems that they are located in different areas of the engine with each year the vehicle was put out. Your local dealer should be able to tell you the location of each sending unit. Hope this helps.

My car runs for awhile then tac starts bouncing around & car dies, won't start back up for awhile. What could this be?

First inclination is a fuel delivery problem. Several causes for this are:

  1. Clogged fuel injectors
  2. Air in fuel line
  3. Leak in fuel line
  4. Bad gas filter
  5. Bad fuel pump

Everything works on dash but clock speedo and tack could a speed sensor fix the problem

no, because the tach uses a different sensor than the speedo. You probably have a connector issue. Is the clock on the same panel? See if you can reach behind and push on the connector. If you want wiring diagram, let me know and I'll see if I can find it.
