As the car ages, the time or temperature display can become distorted. Over time, individual pixels or lines of pixels may not light up, or your LCD screens may black out entirely.

The most common symptoms of the three LCD displays are:

• Missing Pixels
• Digital Display is Too Dim
• Pixilation Issue Dead Pixels
• Distorted Read Out
• Display blacked out

Missing or intermittent pixels are commonly caused by failing LCD ribbon cable connections. A dim display may be caused by a failed backlight bulb. Diagnose a completely black display before replacing parts. Watch the video below to see how the instrument cluster is repaired.
