Pixels stay on as car is turned off

My 2002 E55's pixels stay on when the engine is turned off, draining the battery. Has anyone experienced this or have a fix?

Fuses 4 and 7 under the rear seat supply power to the instrument cluster. You'd have to pull one or both to stop the power drain.

The instrument cluster pixels are electronically driven. I would suggest swapping your cluster for another cluster if you know another person with a W210. If the problem goes away, it's the cluster and you will need to replace with a salvage cluster or locate a shop that can repair.

If you need a schematic for your car, PM me your email and I'll send you the .pdf.

Thanks for the info, this just happened during the cold weather here in Pittsburgh. I'll pull the fuses and replace them then see if a new cluster is needed. Regards Drake
