LCD Pixels Repair

[DCEd]

My 1999 1.6 8V Auto has started to drop out more LCD pixels.
What is the best way to repair it?
Where to go to get it done?

Which display?

What speedo do you have (large or small MFA)?

As it's an Automatic, with the Gear selection information in the display I'm pretty sure it's the large MFA

Are you sure? Maybe post a photo - ideally taken out so part number and manufacturer are visible.

I know there are half screen ones for automatics - see photos in below ebay ad....

I might be able to fix yours for you, clone it to another unit or fit a used one to your car.

I'll get a picture ASAP
It's definitely a larger screen than that as it has miles to empty and other info on the LCD above the Gear selection

If the screen is about twice the size of the one in the ebay link then it is a full MFA and if it has MTE enabled it is immo3 generation (although you can also have MTE on half screen MFA speedos).

It's definitely the larger screen then.
If it is an immo3 what are the approximate costs to repair the LCD?

Would need to know which supplier made your speedo (Motometer, BOSCH or VDO).

Undo the two philips screws at bottom of steering pillar trim, top part lifts off and you can unclip the trim below speedo.
The undo two TX10 screws that hold speedo in place, then you can tilt it forward and should be able to see manfacturer marking and part numbers.

Cost will depend on what display is fitted, some need soldering in place (contacts are SMD size so it is pretty tricky).

I'll get photos, info etc and post them.
Thank you very much for your help.
