It's fairly easy to get the instrument cluster out and then just a case of removing the display from it.
It is possible to repair the display but the easiest option is replacement with a known working, second hand item...

There is probably a guide in the maintenance section for how to remove the dash.

The 'on board computer' is called the m.i.d. (multi info display), it just unscrews from the rest of the instrument cluster.

We suspect its not a MID - grey plug MIDs do not suffer pixel issues, thats why they are worthless ;)
