Why do the BMW speedometer LCD displays fail with pixel failure? DIY Pixel repair helps with pixel failure? Well the BMW speedo manufacturers have a few minurtes only to produce a complete BMW speedo with LCD dispay and silver. Because of this, VDO Instrument Cluster manufacturer decied to assemble the BMW LCD display and the silver ribbon cable with heat bonding procedure. This BMW speedometer assembly design makes the contacts of the LCD display and the ribbon cable loose contact very fast, most cases in just a few years. This means, the BMW LCD display show pixel failures, it needs pixel repair, but both the silver ribbon cable and the BMW LCD display work well - only the connection of them is bad, tha is why you have LCD display pixel problems, and you need a pixel fix by a professional, or done DIY with an LCD display pixel repair KIT - a silver cable. How can we improve the quality of the LCD displays and the ribbon cables? Well if you assemble the LCD with the ribbon cable with pressure, no heat bonding, then the pixels of the BMW LCD display will work for an unlimited time. Dashboard LCD displays work on high temperature, so it is the best to avoid using the heat bonding procedure. Pixel repair DIY, or pixel fix by a professional?

The LCD display repair ribbon cable KIT is available in silver cable version. Once the BMW dashboard instrument cluster LCD display pixel failure was properly repaired, the BMW speedometer display will work as new, the silver ribbon cable and the LCD will work for good in the speedometer.

- If the bulbs are out behind the display, then all the rows and colunms do work on the BMW speedometer LCD display, but the background light of the LCD display is uneven, or some cases the BMW LCD display is completely dark. This case no need to repair the pixels, you do not need a silver or carbon ribbon cable, nor a new LCD display. This case you just need to buy the lightbulbs that provide light behind the BMW LCD display.

- If the BMW speedometer LCD display has really pixel problems, then typically lines or colunms of the display are missing. Several cases the characters are broken, numbers and letters shown on the speedometer display are unreadable - tha backlight is even. In case of a real pixel problem, when one or more pixels are missing from the display, you need to buy a silver ribbon cable, a carbon ribbon cable, or some cases a complete BMW LCD display. It really depends on that if it is a BMW, a Mercedes, and Audi, Saab or other make, and of course if it a MID display, a speedometer, a board computer or other LCD dipslay. Most cases, when you have a pixel failure, and you decide to repair it, it"s really worth to buy a set of bulbs too, as bulbs tend to go out during repair - this is due to the massive mechanical shocks experienced during the pixel repair procedure.

Well, most of the BMW pixel repair KITs we sell are designed to be simple and easy to use. The word easy should now be the subject of further discussion. An average BMW speedometer LCD display pixel repair is far more difficult then replacing a lightbulb. You definitely have to have good mechnical skills, and some household tools, such as nippers, screewdrivers, household tape, and other goodies to fix things around the house.

If you have to ask one of these questions, then you definitly should NOT do a BMW speedometer LCD display pixel repair at home (we were asked these questions before, this is not a joke):

In case you want to replace your instrument panel with something more technologically advanced, check out our 6WB BMW OEM digital cluster that will completely change the interior look of your car. The digital gauge cluster offers a unique visual presentation of the driving experience — it has different looks for each driving mode (Comfort, ECO PRO, Sport & Sport+). This dynamic digital cluster also shows navigation instructions and information from the driver assistance systems. With these features, the new custom gauges cluster distinctly increases the comfort, experience and safety of your driving. If you’re not into such drastic technological advancements, you can also consider a 6WA half-digital instrument cluster for your BMW.

In terms of an iDrive screen, BimmerTech offers a 8’8” VividScreen upgrade kit that perfectly integrates with the native BMW system. Given the fact that it is designed for cars with older systems, i.e. not for touch screen iDrive or split screen iDrive, only BMWs with 6” displays are compatible with it.

After VividScreen installation, the virtual cockpit gets a completely different look which can be compared with having a new car (definitely worth it!). The best thing about this retrofit though is that you will be able to use VividScreen Apple TV 4 functionality, even if your car wasn’t compatible with it before (Apple TV4 is not included into the kit by default).

Whether you opt for a new digital dash or iDrive screen upgrade, the kit assembled for your specific car will contain all the necessary BMW parts for a plug & play installation. Type in your VIN to find out which retrofit is compatible with you vehicle and how much it costs.

I ordered a replacement screen from China on eBay. I followed this write-up to disassemble the screen unit from the car, then disassembled the electronics from the screen (no biggie) plugged the FRESH new screen into the circuit board, replaced the metal protector and connected it back to the plastics, reinstalled it into the car, and voila, totally fresh new screen. Total time. 20 minutes to remove from car and check to make sure it was part number LQ088K9LA02, 2 weeks wait to receive the part from China. Then about 1 hour to remove and replace the screen. Perfect replacement, perfect fit, really pretty easy job.
