dash lights not comming on for 15 mins

[ZEX]

Hey all.

I have a 93 240 sx automatic. The dash lights and the heads up display take depending on how warm or cold it is outside a long time to come on. If the temp outside is about 100 or so then there is no problem for them to come on in a bit but if cold outside it will take upwards of 20 mins sometimes for them to come on. By that time I already broke the speed limit laws on the way to work! For the last two years it has gotten worse, taken more time to come on no matter what the conditions are outside. So I was wondering if anyone has had the same problem and how they fixed it. This is such an anoying problem and would much appreciate someones help thanks.

Check for exposed wires or the connectors

Where would be a good place to start? Would you know of a PDF file with an electrical diagram? Cause i have checked all the fuses and such and my best bet is that something is acting like a thermostat and the connection is made when the car heats up enough... Its soooo frustrating
