First time user Need help with a Instrument Cluster problem.
I send it to Auto & Truck Electronics in PALM Beach Fla. to have it repaired .They sent back "repaired" but it still does the same thing.
Any Ideas?

Are they competant?, where does MB send theirs to be repaired?you dont identify the fault. The factory really does not share a lot of info, so a shop needs to have experience with MB clusters.

Thanks for your time. Auto & Truck Ele was recommened by MB form group so I can't answer if they are on the up and up.
I sent it back. They said they are working on it.
I guess my point is can there be sometning else causing my problem of the Cluster blinking and the only guage that works is the TEMP.
Thanks,Jeff

Thanks,
I am just about to to give up on Auto & Truck Electronics in West Palm Beach, Fla. as they their Tech dept was upset I send the cluster back( even thought they claim a 18 mo warranty) after reinstalling and it failed in one day.-The sales dept gave me authority do do so-they claim 48 hour turnaround put it has been 8 days and I still have not gotten it back and Michelle acts put out every time I call and ask when it is going to be complete. I personally would question their credibly.
