The problem: Perhaps you have noticed that your temperature and time / gear selector displays on E & G class vehicles (or temperature & time, gear selection and odometer displays on C class vehicles) are no longer properly displaying information on the LCD displays. Characters are partially unlit or unrecognizable. Repairing this problem usually involves a complete replacement of the instrument cluster which can cost as much as $900.00 in parts plus additional charges of up to $200.00 at dealerships to reprogram the vehicle mileage, accessory configuration, transfer the repair history and provide removal and installation service. The solution: A repair of these display functions is now available and can be accomplished with a one day turn around time plus shipping to and from our repair location. The defective unit is disassembled and the displays are replaced. The speedometer calibration and all mileage and repair history are unaffected by the repair. The quality: These repairs are not quick fixes. We have invested considerable time understanding this failure and have custom built the necessary disassembly tools and bonding fixtures to perform a quality repair that will withstand the test of time, temperature and humidity. We replace the defective flex circuits with our own gold contact copper / polyimide designs. We employ metallurgically matched conductive film and high strength thermoset epoxy bonding agents to electrically and mechanically interconnect the LCD displays to the circuit boards. The cost: You do get what you pay for, either a cheap repair or a quality repair. We have invested the time and the expense to develop the precise tools to properly remove the display needles without damage. We at A Better Wrench are offering a repair that exceeds OEM requirements and utilizes materials tested to military specifications. This is a repair that is designed to never need to be repeated. We stand behind our LCD bonding repairs with a LIFETIME WARRANTY to the original repair service buyer. The cost is $399.00 plus shipping for those customers requiring air delivery. Automotive repair shops, dealers and private individuals are welcome The procedure: If you can side line your vehicle while repairs are being accomplished all you have to do is remove the instrument cluster and send it to our shop. You can have this done for you or we can provide detailed instructions that will enable you to remove the instrument cluster by yourself or pass on to your mechanic of choice. A tool is required that we can ship to you when you sign up and prepay for repair service. Alternatively you can have a local mechanic remove the cluster for you. It literally takes about 30 seconds to remove the instrument cluster from the vehicle and unplug two connectors. For those of you that need your car every day we can provide a temporary loaner instrument cluster that can be swapped out for your original unit. The temporary unit will show very high mileage and it will not contain your accessory configuration or your vehicle repair history. It would be necessary to return the loaner instrument cluster when your repaired original arrives or you would be charged full price for the loaner unit. The results: Our repair provides you with an instrument cluster that will be a pleasure to view with all needles correctly aligned and the displays fully tested at a fraction of the cost of a new unit.
