    The heat seems to kill the displays really quickly. Escpecially in Australia, if you don't have one of those windshield reflectors up while parked in the sun, the screen fades terribly. Usually it will come back again after a few hours in the cool.

      Similar...I asked the mb dealership to remove my B200 2011's instrument cluster to clean the inside of its plastic window but they said they couldn't do it! I like my car pristine so with this video I'm going to make the attempt. 🤗

    I have a 2001 e320. It has 3 screens. The left is the ambient temp. It is completely dead. The right is digital clock and gear position. It is almost dead. The larger center is faded bad. Do you know if all three are hooked in the same way? I assume the cluster comes out the same as you showed.

    • @PANZERSGARAGE

    Hello, nice video!
    I got a question, is it possible to upgrade this cluster with the digital one (w203 2005+)?? The thing is that the base of this cluster on the video is curvy, is there a way to handle it and upgrade it?

    • @PANZERSGARAGE
      @PANZERSGARAGE  4 года назад

      Thank you! This was my first video made. So i have improved some.
      It is possible but is a good amount of work. Plus you will need star/DAS to resink new cluster. A lot of work to most not worth the effort.

    • @PANZERSGARAGE
      @PANZERSGARAGE  4 года назад +1

      Yes they are comparable to the orginal but of course heavy heated enviroments degrade the lifespan of the lcd display. As the pixels are worn down by UV rays.

  • @grahammacfarlane1726
    @grahammacfarlane1726 4 года назад

    You DO NOT push down on the tabs to remove the LCD - that is the way LCD's are damaged on removal, as you cracked the one you took out!!!
    Just push the LCD upwards towards the top away from the tabs (while still flat in its original location). This will give you enough room to simply lift the LED panel out. It's no wonder I've seen other youtube videos where the person making the youtube clip breaks at least one, and at times both of the bottom locating tabs.

    • @PANZERSGARAGE
      @PANZERSGARAGE  4 года назад

      Not sure if you noticed, but the screen is toast so regardless it being cracked or damaged is not important.
      But good info to add just word it more informative than !!!!!! Your thoughts and suggestions.

      That would be your LED back light which is separate from this LCD display. It can desolder due to heat and age but sometimes connect again when is touches. For the LCD Its best to replace and simple to do.
