N15 instrument panel

Hello, I'm newbie Steve, thanks for having me.

Primary reason for joining is to keep my delightful N15 Almera 2000 3-door invitation model going for even more years! Existing problem seems to be pretty terminal, the cluster display is faulty and now seemingly frozen. I am doubtful that a replacement still exists but we will see.

Can you elaborate on frozen?

A common fault is dry solder on the back of the PCB, you can reflow these and it generally fixes most issues.

Not frozen now. Unpredictable, banging the dash can bring it all back. I thought these were a sealed unit and not accessible. Thanks for your interest.
