Sounds me very much like a portion of the loom may have been cut/nicked/connected incorrectly. Grab some diagrams and have a look at what has changed.

TRACIE_LOU Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 we had this problem re check that the connection on the dimmer is good as it can cut all your lights if you have a spare check it with that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Konrad Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 (edited) Do you know there is 2 fuse boxes in supra? One you should check is hidden right next to gas pedal under plastic cover. If backlight under fuel/temp gauges is still working, check bulbs and check for any cracks around speedo/rev counter lights. All are powered from same connector.
