    I've had the black instrument panel combination meter failure about 4-5 times now over the past few years and I know it's going to eventually fail completely. I'm at 18 years and 340K (original owner).

    Would anyone know of a place in NJ that would be willing to fix this for me at an affordable price? I haven't gotten a quote from my stealership, but have heard that many are asking for thousands. This is not something I can attempt, especially considering my lack of patience <g>.

    Thanks!

    Get a board out of another car it's going to be your cheapest option. Not all of them in the world are broken . Whilst that one in hand they're a million videos how to go about it. But ya should get a junk part before disabling you're car and so on.playibg with ground wire under twilight can revive door open sign and display very quickly and keeping car alive never lets it go dark . But it's too many instructions to keep up with .

    it is unlikely any pro will do it for cheap, it is a big job. anyone should be cheaper than a dealer though.
