Instrument cluster dim - help!
Hello,
2000 E430. I recently completed the fix for the temp and clock pixels (adding rubber strips to make sure the ribbon cable is firmly against the circuit board) but now the cluster background lighting is dim in certain spots. For example, half of the speedo is bright while the other half is dim. I pulled the cluster back out and checked the bulbs and made sure they were secure but problem still remains.
Suggestions? I've heard that this is a risk with the pixel fix but I searched the forum and couldn't find a resolution to the dimming problem. Please help.
Thanks, Matt
