Instrument cluster repairs (UK)
Does anyone know of a company based in the UK who can repair a fault on an
Audi instrument cluster. I've isolated the fault down to either a dry solder
joint somewhere on the PCB or a failing component because the cluster only
works on warm days or when the heater in the cabin is switched on.
There are dozens of vehicle cluster repair companies in the US, but I can't
find a single one in the UK.
Thanks in advance
DT

Don,
Try the following, they are based in Liverpool but I think they form
part of a national franchise in the UK.

Thanks Dave, However they are a mileage correction company. I've called
about 6 of these types of companies in London and the South East (e.g.
dashtoctor, dashtech, speedofixer etc..) and none of them are prepared to
carry out any sort of repair on a cluster, they just fix the mileage. One of
them even suggested that I try a TV repair man as they have good circuit
board experience. Before I do that I would rather start with specialists,
the immobiliser to the car is integrated into the cluster so the worst case
scenario is that the car also gets immobilised if something goes wrong.

You're probably still better off with a TV repair shop though.
