Hello Everybody,
I have read many threads on this subject, but none have helped me so far.......
My problems started with an intermittent fault on the cluster after water ingress - steamed up glass - turns out half of the screws holding the cluster together were missing!!
Fault became permanent a few days later - no LED backlights, LCD or Tacho. Indicator, Neutral lights & main beam lights all OK. Real time clock was resetting, but mileage was holding.
Engine light doesn't come on when starting up.
Engine starting & running fine.
Dried out cluster & cleaned the pcb with IPA, but no improvement. Checked through the loom as best as I could, everything seemed OK. Gave up fault finding as no time & sent the cluster off for repair.
Yesterday - weather really cold - noticed rear lights & indicators dead, but brake light working!!. Pushed it back into the garage switch on and all lights working again.
Charged battery overnight and all lights working fine.
Cluster came back today, claiming to all be working. Reconnected and same problem, no LCD or backlight or Tacho. Neutral light now working, but flickering fast.
Starting engine doesn't make any difference.
What I want to avoid is sending the cluster back to the repair shop if there could be something else wrong.........
Does anybody have a definitive pinout for the cluster - it is a single multi- way connector - photo attached, so I can check the loom properly
Does anybody have a schematic for the cluster pcb?
Could it be a battery issue caused by cold weather.
Any other ideas how I should attack this one?
Thanks in advance for your help
