Does anyone have an idea of where I could obtain a new display, and would it require a T4 session after fitting, or is it just plug and play fitment?
Many thanks in advance, Paul.

It's very rare, I've encountered it only twice, but in both cases it was required to change the display, incidentally both screens were of the blue variant rather than the green ones.

Yes seeing that pic now it may be that one of the contacts has disconnected, had this with a cluster a couple weeks ago where the screen would light up but show no text, was a simple repair.

New screens aren't available anymore unfortunately however if you send the cluster to me I can take a look at it for you. Can see if I can fix the screen, if not I have a few replacement highline clusters with good working screens on the shelf so can supply a ready coded replacement cluster that'll work plug and play

Thanks for that Rick-sta, that's great news.
Roughly how long would you need the cluster to carry out the required repair, as obviously the car will be immobile whilst it is removed, so will have to pick the best time to get it done.
Many thanks, Paul.
