Redryan98 Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 Hey All. I have an 07 LGT. As you know there is a ring that cirles the speedo and tach that lights up red. I noticed this morning that part of the ring that circles the speedometer is not lighting up. Its at the very bottom of the ring. I haven't pulled the gauge cluster out yet so I'm not sure...is it a series of seperate lights that goes around the speedo and tach, or is it one led strip? If its bulb I imagine it will be easy to fix but if its a led strip I'm not sure. Anyone have this happen before or have some insight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redryan98 Posted October 21, 2013 Author Share Posted October 21, 2013 Nothing? I assume its LED since it looks like the other lights in the cluster (DRL for example) are non serviceable. I guess my only option is to get a new cluster, which presumably would have to come from the dealer to program the odometer. Not worth it, guess I'll have to live with the light out.

Danteneon Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 I don't think the very bottom of the speedo ring lights up, at least mine doesn't. The tach ring is complete, but not the speedo. I annoys me, but I think that's the way it's made. I like to cook my pets and my family. Use commas. Don't be a psycho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lockmedic Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Like this? (from an 09 but pretty sure 07-09 are the same) http://www.jbcarpages.com/subaru/legacy/2009/pictures/images/2009_subaru_legacy_picture%20(17).jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danteneon Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Yep, mine's the same... http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t36/danteomni/Car%20Pics/OBK/IMAG0229.jpg I like to cook my pets and my family. Use commas. Don't be a psycho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rice_rocket Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Ooooh... I have an 05 and I *think* mine lights up all the way. Just so happen to have a blurry picture from the inside and the bottom of the ring lights up. I'll be in my car in 1 hr so I'll check again. I know the gauges changed slightly from 05/06 though..

lockmedic Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 05's are different. No fuel econ gauge, the speedo/tach overlap each other, no multifunction display, and the fuel/temp gauges have lighted rings. They look like dis: http://media.caranddriver.com/images/media/35777/subaru-legacy-25gt-limited-instrument-cluster-photo-143403-s-1280x782.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xt2005bonbon Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 I prefer the 05 cluster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ibr_adam09 Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 are all gauges interchangeable ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lockmedic Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 hahaha no. Anything's interchangeable if you don't mind swapping over all the supporting electronics. I have an 05, I bought an 08 parts car. I'm considering swapping over the entire wire harness to get the 08 gauges and SI drive, but I'm beginning to think that's a little nutso. . . probably just swap the stuff i really want (like the stereo with steering wheel controls and aux in) and save the rest for a good donor car, like a 2.5RS or something.

cww Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Just chiming in that my '07 looks the same. The red circle around the speedo is incomplete right above the "MPG gauge." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redryan98 Posted October 24, 2013 Author Share Posted October 24, 2013 Thanks everyone! I've had the car a couple months now and didn't notice it until this week. I wish it the light went around the whole speedo but I'm glad to know its not broken. Checking that one off the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
