Annoying buzzing sound from the dashboard

I´m swedish but I hope you understand me anyway. I have a 2005 S65 AMG.

There's an annoying buzzing sound from the instruments on the dashboard (speedometer, rpm-meter etc). The sound appears about 20 minutes after you have started the engine. The sound automaticly stops when the instrument lights turns off. The instrument lights shuts down approximatly 30 seconds after you have turned the engine off.

When the instrument lights are turned off (about 30 secs after you have turned the engine off) everything is quiot. If I then touch the reset button (R) the dashboard lights up and then the sound appears again, even though the engine is turned off. If I wait about 10 minutes the sound doesn't appear at all, but if I then start the engine and drive away the sound appears in just a minute.

What could be wrong? The car is still under warranty but do they have to exchange the whole instrument cluster or is it possible to fix it anyway?

Thanks in advance

You didn't like my answer in the S65 section so you posted the question again here? Must be a Swedish thing.

Sorry, I didn't see your answer until now. Anyway, I will see what my dealer has to say about this. They will check my car in the 30 May. I just have to wait and see...
