|
|
I have just bought a 1989 E34 525i mechanically great...but the instrument cluster shows intermittent faults, i understand fro other sites, that this is down to 5 capacitors inside the cluster, although i know how to change them, i would prefer to know the capacitor values and buy them before i disassemble the cluster.
Does anyone know what the capacitors ratings are?
Also, any tips on where i can get a driver side door panel in light grey??
Thanks
Mike |

You can first try the most economical and tried and true plan.
-Take the pcb out and re-solder all the joints/connections...you will be surprised.
good luck _________________ Ed from TO |

Thanks for feeding back.
Many folks ask about a problem, fix it via info on this site, and never report back. _________________
