LCD under speedo going out...

2002 TL-S. The LCD display under the speedo (outside temp, trip meter, odometer)flashes on and off occasionally. Anyone else had this problem?

Might be cheaper to just buy a used cluster if you don't care about not having the original one in your car. They can be had for about $150 on ebay.

yea, they said the LCD panel was going bad. b/c it would flicker on and off once and awhile, then it stopped working for good. SO they ordered a new one and installed it. It might have been less then $180, but for some reason that sounds right.

Thanks. I'm not concerned about the price because it's still under warranty. I just wanted a leg to stand on when I took it in to get it fixed.
