Dimly LCD screen.
Hello. I have a minor problem with clusters dashboard.
Some time ago I bought two new LCDs for my car. After the change one side shines very dimly. I changed places of the lcd to see where the error is. The weak side remains so both lcds seems to be ok.The fault is properly in the cluster circuit board.
Has any knowledge how to adjust up the light on left side of the cluster?
Thanx in advance.

You need to remove the eeprom that is inside of the silver box, read it, change two values, and then resolder it back in.
