Dead pixel failure repairs on Mercedes dashboard instrument cluster

RIBBON CABLES


Dead pixel failure repairs on Mercedes
dashboard instrument cluster


Mercedes E class W210, C class W202, Vito and A class speedometers all have the common dead / fading / disappearing pixels on the instrument cluster, on the LCD display that shows the outside temperature and the time, some cases the milage and gears. The pixel problem lies with the ribbon cable / flat cable that connects the LCD display to the circuit board of the instrument cluster. The pictures below show the instrument cluster's LCD display before and after the ribbon / falt cable replacement (just an example of several board computer / dashboard instrument cluster types):
