Default Cluster lcd display totally blank (fuse?)

Hi all, my lcd display is completely blanked, i tried to do a search but everyones problem seems to pixelating.

Is there a fuse that controls just this display? also is the fuel low light on that display too?

Thanks for any help

Did you try pushing the button on the underside of the wiper stalk? This turns the LCD display on and off. And yes the low fuel light is displayed on this screen too.

Hi, yes i tried the button, still nothing. The fuel light doesnt come on so i think the display is dead, no backlight or anything. Seems like theres no power to it.

those clusters go bad occasionally .. but i would make sure that there is power to the instrument cluster before you start going "SWAG" on replacing parts
