This cluster matched my cluster exactly and instructions in the video were really useful. I bought a £15 soldering iron and have never done it before. My car is now fixed, thanks for the upload. Total time for me was hour and half.

Did this yesterday on my wife's 2008 Mondeo. Hitting the top of the dashboard stopped being effective last month. After watching your video, i decided to have a go with nothing to lose. Working perfectly now, including some of the steering wheel controls which haven't worked for 3 years.
Thanks for the video. €350 saved.

Un grand merci ma ford Cmax de 2009 tdci m'affichait un défaut moteur + défaut direction assistée et c'était bien le compteur. J'ai refait les brasures comme dans votre tuto et ça a fonctionné 🎉👍🏼
Big thank you ! my 2009 Ford Cmax tdci was showing me an engine fault + power steering fault and it was indeed the dashboard. I redid the soldering as in your tutorial and it worked 🎉👍🏼
Cheers

Always found a fork works very good in pulling indicator needles off.............

I am getting error
Lost control with instrument pannel cluster and
Lost communication with body control module
Are these two because of same problem

[@memory199726]

​@@vamshikrishnaaa very possible to check if it is indeed when it happens give a big slap on the dashboard.. if the light goes away for a bit when you slap the dashboard then it almost 100% possible is the joints just like shown on the video

Lead free solder is the cause of the problem with these clocks.
Use 60-40 lead-tin solder with separate rosin flux. 👍👍
