Cl500 2003

CL500 instrument backlighting

My CL 500 dash lights flickered and then stopped working I have checked it with diagnostic and gauges are working but backlights stopped. Fuse ok looks to be the cluster $4500 to replace. I have removed it amd hoping to get it repaired. Does anyone ha e wiring diagram for Cl215 2003 and circuit diagram for the cluster. Any help would be appreciated. I know MB had a recall on them but as car is 2003 I guess they won’t do it now

Or buy a second hand binnacle, but you will then have the problem of car not recognising the dash and having to get star to reset
