W210 Dash Cluster Questions
Hello,
i have a few questions about my dash cluster.
Pic:
The temp side is dull, i tried to search but i kept coming up with LCD repair ones which dont apply to my model. (is it just a bulb on that side for the temp?)
But the other question i have is with the low fuel light. I have not once seen it come on once not when i turn the car on or when the fuel is very low.
Should the low fuel light come on when turning the key to accessory?
Thanks!

Simply pull the IC and check all the bulbs!!
Regarding the low level fuel sensor--FYI mine only comes on when I have less than 2 gallons of fuel and when above does not light up upon startup check!!

I had the same issue long time ago and it happened to be a lightbulb that was damaged. Once changed, it looked just as bright as the rest of the screen.
Regarding to the "fuel reserve light", I have a dash cluster similar as yours (but in MPH) and the reserve light comes on any time I turn the key to start the car and goes away once the car starts. This may be another lightbulb damaged so it could be worth to pull your instrument cluster and check the bulbs.
