Fuel and temperature are on their way out and I have no idea how fast I am going nor do I know how high my engine is revving. Is there a fix for this? 1995 Lexus ES300

I have a 96 ES300!!!!!! Yay welcome to the club :)

Fortunately, I didn't have my needles burn out, but my dash bulbs did. Even though yours may be OK for now, you should still replace them, along with the needles. The needles are LED's; the backlight bulbs are incandescent.
