Josh42 Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 The display units are common for suffering dry solder, try removing the panel and moving the connector up and down with the keys in the ignition, see of you can get them to light up. Mine didn't work until I wedged something under the connector block:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJT88 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 You could try gently tapping the dash, I've had mine out 3 times, and after putting it back in, it also didn't light up completely. An encouraging tap next to the cluster did the trick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
