2005 Camry Instrument Cluster ![IMG_20200425_224649302](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/cartalk/original/3X/7/2/72d1115c43ed35ac363decb37eeb887dc0d3da0b.jpeg) I seem to have the SMD LEDs that most instrument clusters have. I’ve searched and searched online and can’t seem to find a part number for these. Does anyone know what the typical ones are? Mine seem to have four pins that get soldered to the PCB. I do simple searches like Instrument cluster SMD LED, and can’t seem to find ones that look similar to mine. I’d like to buy new ones online, but without a part number, or finding one that looks similar, I’m not so sure what to do? Can someone help me identify what SMD LEDs I have on my instrument cluster, so that way I can buy some? ---

Will take some googleing, came up with this searching smd led camry cluster Not saying it is the right thing, [https://www.ebay.com/b/Instrument-Panel-Lights-for-Toyota-Camry/33711/bn\_1491862](https://www.ebay.com/b/Instrument-Panel-Lights-for-Toyota-Camry/33711/bn_1491862) ---

Yea thanks all I find is those bulbs that are meant to go into a socket, not directly soldered to a PCB. I think these are PLCC (not sure if two or four or what the difference is) SMD LED Diodes but I’m not entirely sure, or know how to identify them. I think they are PLCC-4 SMD LED Diodes based on there being four pins. I can just get any PLCC-4 SMD LED Diode? ---

Hard to say, have you unsoldered a bad one to see if there is a part number on the back? Another option is to look for a board at salvage or online and play swaporama. ---

The Lexus IS 250 has a high failure rate of cluster LEDs, you might find do-it-yourself information for Toyota clusters by searching “Lexus IS 250 cluster lights”, for example; [https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-2nd-gen-2006-2013/579160-diy-how-to-swap-cluster-lights-inlcuding-needles.html](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-2nd-gen-2006-2013/579160-diy-how-to-swap-cluster-lights-inlcuding-needles.html) ---

You can try searching for LEDs at some electronics suppliers, such as [Mouser](https://www.mouser.com/Optoelectronics/LED-Emitters/_/N-ec209) or [Digi-Key](https://www.digikey.com/products/en/optoelectronics/led-indication-discrete/105). These links will take you to their discrete LED pages. Use their filters to narrow down the options to see if you can find something that matches what you need. ---

I agree with @Bugmenot forget the part number thing. Go to electronic suppliers and search by dimensions, solder points, and color. IIRC the PCB is labeled for the color at each LED. ---

Driving around looking for vibration in this vehicle , picture of valve cover off asking about engine flush , Dash assembly out of vehicle plus all the other questions about this 15 year old 150000 mile Camry . I wonder if it is fiction writing or if true why bother when this is a good time to replace a problem vehicle. ---

I think it’s pure stubbornness , the old " I’m going to fix this myself if it kills me " . I’ve been guilty of it more than once.
