thanks for this tutorial! One mention I have to make, after you put everything back you pressed too much on needles and now the red halo effect on the center of the arrows are not visible anymore. You can look for differences at 01:02 and 03:25
Großartig! Meine Giulietta QV (mit fast identischem km-Stand) hat zwar keine ausgefallenen LEDs doch habe ich schon lange daran gedacht, die Farbe der Anzeige zu ändern. Egal wie ich den Kontrast einstelle, bei der Set-Funktion (Licht- Regensensor usw.) kann ich nix erkennen. Da würde ich gerne eine andere Farbe verbauen - habe aber vermutet, dass es nicht geht. Dank deiner Anleitung bin ich zuversichtlich geworden. Vielen Dank dafür!
Hey Tyson. Man da hast du aber gute Arbeit geleistet. Sag mal hast du auch ein Video, wo du mal Step by Step zeigst wie du das alles abmontierst ? + auch mal die Tachonadeln justierst ? Und sag mal kann man auch einfach andersfarbige LED´s in die Matrix für den LCD einbauen ? Mit freundlichem Gruß Alex
Oder anders gefragt. Weisst du mit wie viel Strom die LED´s versorgt werden können ? Hattest du mal in Erfahrung gebracht worüber die LED´s ihren Strom beziehen ? MfG
I can see that 3 pins are used for testing. Which is +12V Dimmer and GND. I can't see if the yellow is the bottom or top line. I will soon have to repair such an instrument unit with this error. Thanks.
I have a similar problem, but the diodes around the clocks do not work, after replacing them, unfortunately they still do not work, do you have any suggestions?
Hi Tyson, I'm looking to change the whole multifunction screen to white rather than red, if i change out these red led's to white ones will that change the screen to white? or is there more to it? Thank you for the tutorial!
Yeah that should work, but i'm not sure if the contrast is good with white LEDs on the Screen, but you can try it with a flashlight when the dash is disassembled.
Awesome. I believe the series 3 cars have the white multifunction display. I wanted to ask what the four orange diodes in the lower left of the multifunction screen were for? As it seems the entire multifunction screen is red? Thanks!
Hi Tyson, Nice job you did!! I'm getting a other facia's for my cockpit from Italy, and the revcounter will be yellow, (like a Ferrari) I want to change my leds to ice blue, and the second last one of the revcounter to Orange, and the last one to a red LED. Do you know wat the Voltage is on the board for the LEDs? And what pins do i need to connect to test them, before i place the cockpit back? Thank you for your reaction! Greetings from Arnhem, Holland!
hi, the voltages of the leds are slightly different by color, but that shouldn't matter. They are connected in series, so the voltages should be okay. I would recommend to just give the whole dash 12v on your desk as i did, then you can see if everything works before you mount it back in the car. Feel free to contact me by email (see website) if you need more infos/help :) regards, Manuel
Just had a quick look, they are 8-9 Lumen, but that is the standard from what i can see. Also: Not to important, you can adjust the brightness over the Cars software, but i would recommend to change all LEDs because the old ones will always be more dimm then new ones
ne, zündung aus lassen, stecker am Tacho ab, fertig. ob der strom von allem auf einen schlag weg ist oder nur vom Tacho wenn der Stecker gelöst wird macht keinen Unterschied
Hi Tyson I need help...Me and my friend changed our SMD Leds onour Peugeot 307 and Alfa Romeo 147....in both cases(cars) after some time,led that brightens FUEL GAUGE on BOTH of our cars completly shuts down, and then turns on, then off etc...we have soldered new LED on places intended for fuel gauge on both of our cars, and it works for a day or two...then it shuts down (only fuel gauge led shuts down, rest of them work fine) then it turns on but does not work in full strenght etc. Do you know a possible issue? Why only our FUEL GAUGE LED turns off itself (after we took out our first LED we soldered...it was workiing...we tested it on a multimeter and it was working fine)
this could be many Things sadly, either a cold soldering join or the pcb is damaged ( sometimes it is only the leds like my Giulietta, it can happen that even the pcb gets damaged over the years). What happens when you power the dash and shake it or similar? when it then goes off/on the pcb maybe the problem, that would be unfixable
see my blog post, i just added a screenshot with the pins visible, but check with a multimeter that the pins are correct first before connecting to 12V@@janezvodopivec7200
Excellent, this is the exact problem I have in my Mito. Looks easy! Thank you.
Still driving my Giulietta btw. and the new leds are still working great! Not easy for everyone, but if you can solder it's not hard indeed

Danke für die netten Worte, dann viel Erfolg beim umbau :)
und hast du es geschafft?
Hi my friend ..do you try to change the red leds from odometer to white?? Thanks
Hallo
Wie ist die belegung?
Lg

have a look at my blogpost (link in Video description), i added a image with colored cables which pin is what.
Hi, I should replace the LEDs too, could you explain how you removed the odometer needles without ruining the motors?
you can just pull on the needles, at least on my unit the came off quite easily
I have a similar problem, but the diodes around the clocks do not work, after replacing them, unfortunately they still do not work, do you have any suggestions?
this could be many things, hard to say what it is sadly.
How did you disassemble the gauge and then how did you take it apart? Can you share detailed video please?
it's just a few clips ands screws, nothing fancy really. Just unclip the plastic nobs on the case and it will come apart :)
Great video, how did you calibrate/zero the needles?
if you power it up it goes to zero. So just power up, power down, adjust needles, power up. done :)
@@TysonpowerDe Thanks! just replaced al the illumination led's on my Mito's cluster after some failed and it works like new!
@@rienschouten5892 Nice to hear that! Happy the Video helped you!
Great job👍 so you only replaced the white led's? The other ones dont seem to fail right?
exactly

@@blakehourigan6149 The orange LEDs are there to display Issues/ warnings, they will be displayed in Orange then :) But yeah, white should work
Hello Tyson. Do you have the link to where you bought the LED because I couldn't find it.
Just search on Ebay for 3528 smd leds and get the color you need :) I used white.
Hi Tyson, Nice job you did!!

@@TysonpowerDe Thank you for your kind support, I'll shoot you een email! I lerned a lot from your video, very educational and entertaining..
Really good video, how did you connect power to the clocks, what pins were + & = ?
Thx! When you look at the connector the Bottom Right pin is GND, the Two pins to the right of that need to be connected to 12V.
@@TysonpowerDe Sounds a bit not clear :) ... pin 1 - GND, pin 2 battery, pin 3 - key-on (ignition)
@@mojsterjakec Are these the pins for powering the cluster?
Hello, Do you have idea what is the problem when the LEDs behind LCD display are not working, all of them ?
it could have many reasons, but the LEDs behind the LCD could just pe broken like the white ones on mine.
Hi Tyson, did you remember the luminosity of new diods that you used? Thanks :)
Just had a quick look, they are 8-9 Lumen, but that is the standard from what i can see. Also: Not to important, you can adjust the brightness over the Cars software, but i would recommend to change all LEDs because the old ones will always be more dimm then new ones
@@TysonpowerDe 8-9 Lumen, so the color of light is between 5000-6000 Kelvin right?

Hello. How did you turn on all led diodes?
just connected the power pins of the dash to 12V 😎
@@TysonpowerDe Which pins are for power supply? Thanks for help...

@@TysonpowerDe Thank you for your help.
Hi, i have changed all led but only 2 of them works, other doesn't work....why?🥲
Sounds like a cold solder joint to me or you installed an LED backwards.
