Exclamation Do you know if it's repairable?

I'd like o know if the Climate H.U. is repairable on my C43 AMG,
it has the famous pixel problems, they are dissapearing while driving.
I have to tap the display with my finger and the numbers will come back for a while.

I like to know if this problem can be fixed or Do I have to buy a new one.

Can you tell me where to buy a new H.U. cheap.

Is it possible to change the FAHRENHEIT to CELSIUS with MB computer software because I live in Europe, we use celsius here?
Buying parts from USA for my c43 is cheaper, than Europe.

ive had that feature on the last 3 w202's, my current one doesnt do it, but i expect it will start soon. its really not that bad, just push on the corner of the frame and it will come back... not sure about any fixes..

yeah bud,
tapping the glass with the finga' is the cheapest solution so i guess it aint worth dealing with it.
cheers

Mine was really bad 2 months ago. I pulled it out and pulled out those things on the side of the climate control. I just used a flat screw driver and opened them a little bit and put the whole thing back. It helped big time, now and than it fades but never like it use to before.
