This service repairs the following common failure symptoms and has a 1-2 business day turnaround time. You will be provided a shipping address to ship your item to Brighton MA upon successfully completing the checkout :
Bulb Failure
The most common bulb failures are for the 3 LCD displays and the 3 gauge faces. These are backlit by 6 bulbs. The uptime of the aforementioned bulbs are the highest as they are always on while the vehicle is operated. When bulb failure occurs, the time and gear position displays may become illegible, and the central LCD may appear partially illuminated.
LCD Pixelation
Pixelation is typically present on the left and right LCD displays which provide temperature, time, and gear position information. This is caused by the failure of the LCD carbon ribbon cables which are adhered to the conductive strips on the instrument cluster circuit board. When the cable fails to properly contact the circuit board, it results in dead pixels on the LCD display.
LCD screen delamination
This presents as damage to the screen face that begins on the leading edge of the screen. This is an irreversible breakdown of the coating on the display and can only be resolved with screen replacement.
Inoperable Check Engine or SRS light
This will cause an immediate emission test failure in many states if the check engine light does not illuminate during the self test. This is caused by burned traces in the instrument cluster circuit board.
Erratic Gauge function/ No gauge function
Jumpy or unresponsive gauge function. Loss of fuel gauge along with loss of primary and secondary LCD displays.
