Hi again chaps,
Now instrument cluster ie fuel gauge temp gauge Rev counter dig display
Mileage will that just be a strait swap or will there be any ecu issues?

[ronnyd]

I believe that you can't put any cluster in as you can get false readings or something like that.   I'm sure someone will be along soon to explain why.

Okay thanks,

It’s just the bulbs have all gone and the lcd display has gone very dim
barely readable at the bottom just thought it may be easier to change the complete thing🙂

You can just change the bulbs.  Cheaper and easier than sourcing a suitable replacement cluster.

Is there any one one here that could maybe do such a job
I wouldn’t be any good at a job like that I would do more damage than good😟

[Migv6 le Frog Fan]

Just need to undo two or three screws and it pulls out. 
May well be a guide in the guides section. Cant remember to be honest, but its a 5-10 minute job.

Tools needed =  One screwdriver and one butter knife.

Have you checked that you havent accidentally dimmed the dash lights on the adjuster wheel at the lightswitch ?

[jacko]

Yea I checked that it’s on full the screen just blank on the low setting

[jacko]

Okay looks straight fwd and where do I source the bulbs
And maybe a stupid question but are there lights for the digital display easily changed?

Anywhere that sells auto bulbs. They are quite standard.  I would replace all of them as a matter of course.


The display bulbs, assuming its not a CID, are as easy to change at the dash bulbs.  The display bulbs do vary, so you will need to check which ones yours has fitted.

[jacko]

Okay excellent chaps, that’s my next fix no 11 of a list of 20 so going well 😀

[jacko]

Just as a matter of interest
Does the cid have a top and bottom bulb

Just trying to pre empt if it’s bulb or the actual display

[jacko]

Thanks for the guid by the way

CID is a full colour screen and unlikely to be fitted to a 2.2.

Your options are most likely the basic TID (Triple info display: clock/date/temperature) or, if you have a trip computer, MID (Multi Info Display: as above with fuel and radio info).

There are a couple of options, but they are basically the same as the TID/MID and are headunit specific
