All that sounds pretty normal....

Best way to confirm the display is working properly is to press the right cluster button - you should see 'CHECK CONTROL OK" come up on the display. If you keep holding it down, you can access the BC diagnostics menus.

There is a dash display test routine in the diags.

Checkout this post from Qsilver7...

Once the hidden menus are unlocked, use test #2 to test the display.
