Instrument cluster
My instrument cluster has had a complete failure.
Can I replace the one I have with any other one...or, must the part numbers match?
The problem I have is the label with the part number on has been removed.

Where is the car's mileage stored?

normally yes give me your vin Ill give you the list of compatible clusters
in miles yes ?
Then you must adapt it to your car with adaption takeover in Xentry
The mileage is in the EIS, the shifter and engine module. the cluster just sends and read back not locked on mileage
If you don't adapt it you'll get ------- as mileage in cluster

Hi PM...my VIN is: WDB2153752A046138

The cluster has one speed scale going to 260.
I can, using the menu, switch between mph and kph.

Thanks.

ok

now tell me if you want a USA/UK cluster to replace your euro cluster
or you want to keep your Euro cluster with the KM scale to 260

USA/UK miles clusters



EURO KM cluster





or you might want a AMG cluster that scales to 360 like mine

I'd like to keep the Euro cluster, but USA/UK one will do the same job.

I picked up a cluster for £90. I hope it works.This is cheaper than the parts needed to effect a repair...even if I could solder neatly.

then adapt with takeover the old cluster coding

it will read
then tell you to replace cluster
and write to new cluster

done
