pixel problems

[bigwave2255]

hi

ive begun to notice random failing pixels in my car, first in the radio OBC etc
they will come and go,

and now in the gauge cluster, the total kilometres travelled is dull and fairly hard to read its like it got a bad connection, so im wondering if maybe i should pull the gauge cluster out and check where the ribbon connector sits maybe i can get away with cleaning it.

im quite comfortable pulling this apart, just need a heads up on what to expect

i did some searching and there is a guy on ebay selling them but from his add he seems to want to do the repair himself rather that sell the ribbon.

anyone done this before what were your experiences??
