Audi TT MK1 (8N) instrument cluster repair service
The MK1 TT instrument cluster / dash clocks are well-known for failure of the central LCD display. As they age TT clusters are also becoming notorious for failing solder joints. These can cause all manner of issues including the immobiliser blocking the engine from running.
The more common fault symptoms include mis-reading or non-functional gauges, backlights failed or flickering, complete cluster failure (only a few warning lights lit), random cluster shutdown (needles dropping, beeping, spurious errors) and parasitic battery drain. We can correct all of these faults, getting your cluster looking and working like new.
The work we do:
1. Thoroughly test before and after repair
2. Re-solder >100 components that we know are trouble spots
3. Hot-air resolder all pins and components on and around both MCUs (microprocessors)
4. Fit high quality replacement parts where needed
5. Calibrate all 4 gauges
6. Clean gauge glass inside and out
