Replacing instrument cluster for 2000 S430
I have a 2000 S430 with 101,000 miles the instrument cluster is going dead (fading). Can anyone help me with instruction on how to replace the instrument cluster? Or is there any check I can perform before replacing the unit? Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

RE: Replacing instrument cluster for 2000 S430
that's too much a price for the function of a wire hanger!
i never use the tool anymore for it will break the lens if it slips (it doesn't matter on your case anyway because you will replace it).
i simply remove the left air duct, insert my hand from there and push the instrument cluster from behind. easy does it.

Check with the MB dealership first. there was a recall on the clusters on the S and CL. You might be covered. But I think it might be 10yrs limit. You can't get a cluster from another car, it wont work.
