Hi Nik
Thanks for the very detailed video, I've just followed it, and it solved my read-out issue. Before reassembling everything, I installed just the PCB in the car to make sure it worked.
I used a hot glue gun to put a blob of glue over each drilled pillar. The hardest part with some cussing are the connectors on the rear.
Again many thanks

Thank you, I’m happy this method worked for you. Hot glue is a great idea, Thank you

[@wayneclarke1270]

Thanks you very much very helpful I was wondering if you could give me the part number of the two small light bulbs behind the screen thank you wayne

[@nikscarsurgeries9926]

I’m happy this video helped you. The part number for the smaller bulbs (1.2w) is 62131383311. Have a look at realoem.com if you haven’t already. you will be able put your VIN in the search and it will show you all part numbers for your car. I hope that helps

How did you re-secure the board (since the polymer posts were drilled out)?

[@nikscarsurgeries9926]

There are tiny clips at each connector that actually hold the board in place quite well. Plus, once the cluster is back together, the housing holds the board in place as well. IMO those posts are there as an anti tampering thing.

Good work.. but what to do when extra pixels lighting along with numbers...?

[@nikscarsurgeries9926]

I’d still try this method, it could work

All my cluster needles sometimes stop working for a bit and come back alive 30 min later. What’s the fix

Didn't work with mine, what could I have done wrong?
